1/4 12.44
mph 111.78(crap wheelhop)

2nd
r/t -.046(oops)
60' 1.73
1/4 11.92
mph 113.27(new best time + mph)

3rd
r/t .14
60' 1.71
1/4 11.88
mph 113.28(new best time + mph)

4th
r/t -.006(oops again)
60' 1.92
1/4 12.30
mph 112.85(wh again!)

5th
r/t .73
60' 1.79
1/4 11.95
mph 113.48(new best time + mph again!)

9th

I had some problems getting the burnout done on the wheelhop runs.
I had fun and nothing broke! Should have the cutouts in for the next time.

Urethane bushings, box the rear control arms & install a rear control arm braces. That should be the end of your wheel hop.

Already have the full Hotchkis rear w/ adj upper arms. I can't fit the rear braces with the 3" exhaust. I usually don't have a problem with wheelhop at the track unless I do a crappy burnout. That night I was having trouble sometimes doing the burnout.

Check Out the old style Edelbrocks if you can find them. THat is what I used. The UMIs don't clear.
