Well, it's been some time sense I've posted in this forum, some of you may remember my build, stock head w/intake mill'd off, offset ground stroker crank, Manley rods and CP pistons, well last night I went to our local track Firebird Raceway, It was a street car night, the car pass tech inspection for running in the 14's, first pass I ran against my buddies drag car, I ended up killing my motor because I couldn't hear my own car over his str8 headers, 14.36 et @ 110.06 MPH not bad considering, so I went up and got my 110 mph stickers, next pass was better at 12.858 et @ 114.86, better but spinning the street tires through 2nd gear, third pass 12.877@ 116.29, now I'm thinking/wondering if I can go 120 mph in full street trim, so I raised the boost from 14 to 18lbs and added fuel (four jet sizes front and rear) next run the car explodes the tires all the way through 2nd gear, kicks sideways in 3rd and at about 1000 feet it just falls off, I look at the boost gauge, no boost, to the pits I go, found one off my plastic vacuum/pressure T fittings had broken of course it had to be the one that controls the fuel pressure reg., that pass the car went 12.676@ 116.35mph, next time up and the last run of the evening the car went 12.635@ 120.08MPH YES SIR OVER 120MPH on street tires, now if I can figure out how I'll post some pics.
