New from Elgin Il to the forum.
Hello everyone, new to this site but not new to forums. I found this one yesterday.
I have a 93' with a 429 to a 520 Scat kit, linked to a TH400 trans and 9" rear end. 10.5 slicks, coilovers all four corners, mini tubbed, anti roll.
Factory cast maxed gutted DOVE heads, victor manifold, 1050 dominator. Barry Grant 440+ fuel kit front to rear, 8 gal fuel cell.
Car has run a best of 10.18 with 1.39 60' @ 131 mph. MPH seems low because just found out that my pump pressure was only set to 8 psi!! I now have pump pressure of 21 but have not gone back to the track since the adjustment. The dang car was getting hungry on the top end and never noticed it!
Over this winter I plan on installing the zex dominator plate system just so I can make it in the 9's like I have been trying to really do over this past year. Spray is the cheapest route to go.
Looking forward to chatting with some of you guys for tips or just to BS!!!
