In the 8's

http://pbckt.com/pJ.QaCwdF
Had Lenny at ucc tighten up the converter . I went through the engine cleaned up the intake and new springs, no changes, same pistons cam and edelbrock heads. I almost crapped myself when I saw the slip! Last year it went 9.76 N/A this year it went 9.60 and 9.11 on the same 250 plate kit .

congrats very nice pass

Thanks! It was 82 degrees out with 98% humidity and I thought this pass is gonna suck. I'd like to see what it does on a 65 degree day.

Nice job Jason !

Wow. That musta been one dirty intake!

Very nice! Hoping on my first nine in this car in the next couple weeks.

Good luck! What's it running now?

10.33 at 133. Since I have removed close to 100 lbs. New motor should have about 70 more HP I hope. Going from 11-1 comp to 13.6-1. Added more stroke also to go from 501-521. ...... There was more left in the 10.33 motor. I believe it was a 9.99 with a little work. Looooooong story on why I pulled it.Had to.

I'm building a 68 dart with a 521 ford , but it's gonna be pump gas. When you get it going post some numbers.
