well it ran 8.5@ 99mph in the 1/8th with a 2.6 60. it only ran a 12.5 in the 1/4 @114. something broke, thinking its in the valve train. its ticking and backfiring at idle but still has "power". no smoking or anything just a lot of ticking. pulled hard in the 1/8 then fell off...big time. that was the only pass i got to make. then packed it up and came home. it was fun but it sucked.

Well ****, great dyno fun and then you break at the track We did run the same 1/8mi times tho Its probably just broke a spring or bent a pushrod....I wasted my tranny

That sucks, you get all excited to go out to the track and something breaks. Had that happen to me before in my old 95 eclipse GST. That ****** broke all the time. Hope you get everything fixed and update us with some new times when you get them.

Sounds like a valve spring,pushrod or so. If it backfires bad,we've burnt exhaust valves but that would take alot more boost.

so you all think its something simple then. i guess beating the **** out of it one night then taking it to the track didnt fare to well. oh well im happy with the 1/8 mph. wonder what it would have been in the 1/4 if it would have held

A broken piston ussually blows alot of smoke.I would pull the valve covers and check the springs/valvetrain. -also,don't drive it till you find the problem.

i figured the driving part. anything inparticular i should look for besides broken metal

of course nothing ever goes as you want it to when you get stuff done

Did you get the car tuned after? What were your numbers?

99 in the 1/8th with a sixty like that is moving. You must have been spinning like mad over the sixty LOL
Cheers,

you should see how i took off in the 60. i took off like i was at a red light. didnt rev it up just eased out like at a stop light. pretty funny for me bc im just use to dumping it but yeah it sucks i know. i figure its good for over 100 once i get it fiured out. we will have to see. i will look at that stuff tommorow or tuesday. got other things to do for now. but i will let you guys know when i get it taken care of

Kaos, you running stock springs? I'd change them for sure.

99 in the 1/8th is high 10 second potential.

918's. they have less than 1k miles on them. i dont think its a spring. but it could be. going to pull the covers tommorow. i hope its just some push rods or something. high 10s would be great. i think it can go over 100 with a better 60. im tellin ya it looks like it died off of the line then takes off like a rocket

it could be a broken spring even still...Especially if you have a high lift cam...Great numbers though...Can't wait to see you run a full pass....

Valve or spring.

CHRISPY

I think with an aggressive launch and traction you'll hit over 100mph in the 1/8th very easily. Probably 103-105.
