Default Nathan Higgins runs 9.98@139 - N/A 6speed

http://www.ls1.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=58351

60` - 1.437
660` - 6.394
MPH - 109.06
ET - 9.935
MPH - 139.96



Keep in mind this is a Ute (Probably close to 3900 lbs). It may have some lightening done to it, but it isn't a tin can. with a GM 6 speed and its naturally aspirated.

Correct. He could only muster a 10.4 on an Exedy Dual disc, and they only lasted a few passes. He swapped to a Textralia dual disc.

Pics for Patrick. Injectors are top mounted (ala F1)...






Specs

Here is one of them

If you can figure out the directory structure on fullboost.com.au the video is called

fullBOOST_calder_06_02_higgins.avi

This is the better video. If not, I'll host it up. Directory structure should be something like.


http://www.fullboost.com.au/content/...02_higgins.avi - but that doesn't work. The URL is too long for me to see in my browser.

ok, I see how the injectors are pointing right into what looks like a individula intake runner but does this work without the traditional TB? Are the intake valves just opening as the cam rotates and the injectors firing at the same time?
