Default Track times for an AFR headed car.

Ran My WS6 tonight at Sacramento raceway......

11.559@119.092 1.606 60'
11.561@119.952 1.607 60'< Best mph
11.640@118.851 1.614 60'
11.669@118.451 1.647 60'
11.618@119.915 1.662 60'
11.707@117.115 1.638 60'< slightly missed 4th, lol

I was a little disappointed in the mph, but over all I am pretty happy.

What tires are you using to cut a 1.6 60ft. Nice Job! What was the DA? Race weight? Finally, what was the best mph you ran with the old TEA heads? One of these days I will get to go back to the track and try to break into the 11's.

I am currently doing a similar setup to yours with the AFR 205's and the comp 232 234 .595 .598 XER on 112 on my stock bottom end.

Do you think you're losing anything in the midrange with the 1 7/8 headers?

I am going with 1 7/8 kooks since I'm planning to go up to a stroker over the winter and dont want to have to buy headers twice.

I was hoping to get mid 11's @ about low 120 mph traps, so I'm pleased to see your right about there.

Congrats on the times

I took my AFR heads car to the track for the first time on thursday and I was very happy with the way it ran

I click of a 10.73@ 128 on my first full pass and a bunch of 10.80's after that. The car still needs some more tuning and I want to play with the suspension a bit.

Pete, what headers are you running? That's a kickass mph and et for a stock cube motor.

Congrats.

Nice runs, but your MPH seems very low for 460 rwhp.

Off topic, but does anyone know if it's possible to still buy the MMS 229 anywhere? I think Morgan is out of business now?

Great numbers. What are your other mods? Race weight?

Me thinks 3,200 lbs. and a 4.11 9 inch with a four link. Not impressed. Let's see what he pulls when it is dialed in.

There is no 4 link in the car. race weight is about right and the 4.11's with the 9 inch is right also.

spellbound, do you have any weight reduction or know what it weighs? i would have expected 123+ depending on the DA.

M&H 27' slicks
Race weight....hmm about 3650 or so with driver.
DA, I don't know, it was cool though.
119.7 on the old combo.

Car feels faster and dyno's higher, but so far it doesn't translate to better track times.

I was thinking the same thing.

As far a weight reduction

-bmr k frame w/ hal shocks, upper and lower tubular a arms
-spare and jack
-floor mats
-cargo flap thing in the back
-Convo Pro's, slicks and skinnies
-less than a 1/4 tank of gas

+ Moser 12 bolt
+ heavy *** bmr tq arm
+ sub frame connectors
+ 1 inch rear sway bar

I originally weighed my car when it was stock, with a half tank of gas @ 3520
I weigh about 220.
