My old heap went......

5.52/124, 1.231 60., at Brainerd Optimist in Ringgold GA saturday night. Blake the snake did a great job putting the motor together (its a 499) and lots of thanks out to Larry Turner for the new wheelie bars, 4-link adjustment, and the weight in front. BTW, Im on racing gas!

I have a video but dont know how to post it.

499 i like that Blake seem to be very nice guy and knows how make a bbf haul azz.

That's awesome Russ!

now put a plate on it so you can win the ford race....... I got one here.......

nice you can use my cross hair plate if you want,I have some pretty good tunes for it.

Peer pressure....... Do it Russ, spray it!

I know nothing about NOS! Maybe you guys can help me out.


1. Does the timing have to be changed to run a plate?
2. How about fuel pressure?
3. Fuel mixture?


Worried I will burn a piston.

put a good flowed mapped out system on it, run good fuel, pull the correct amount of timing...............no worries. I've put a 200 shot through my n/a motor for the last year, and a 150 shot the entire year before. Fuel press will depend on the the jet spread etc.

Russ I am in the same boat as you as I have run NOS before on some street cars but not on my personal cars or a N/A car.

Russ if you decide to do it I also have a multi step timing retard and all the jets you would need. I have a different set up for the new car.I'm still a little ways away from having the other car together.

Running Ward's setup and tunes, I don't think you could go wrong Russ.
