3rd round of track times ET 240cc 346" -> 10.4 @ 132 Tonight we went to MIR looking for some decent air and its getting there. We had initally thought the DA was going to be under 500' tonight but the conditions just were not there. We were looking to be close to 0' altitude and blast some deep 10 second runs but we're still moving in the right direction. I only made a handful of passes. Here's the best one....
DA 875'
60' 1.51
1/8 6.7 @ 104
1/4 10.4 @ 132
We're pretty excited at the current progress, the 10.4 @ 132 puts us @ 10.2 @ 133.5 @ 0' DA. Some good air and more tuning will hopefully get us into the 9s all motor.

From the title it does look as if you just installed ETP heads only 
, like thats where the emphasis is at rather than using "solid roller 346" or something 
. Great heads though BTW and I'm not hating!!
Anyway, awesome times again and nice improvement on your 60' from the last time out.
Congrats!!

Man, my ET 245`s should be back this week and on the car. I can`t wait to see what mine runs with a 200 shot! As heavy as my car is, I would love mid 10`s on motor and then you know on spray!! Great job with you set-up!

Phil,
Dan hit what I was talking about.
My point was your title makes it sound like the heads are the only thing that made the car move. Glad you at least give details on the setup. My point with Futral was they went 9's on probably less of heads. Sure, it was in a different chassis but it wasn't the heads alone that got you the 10.4.. It's the whole package and a lot opf people don't see it that way.
I'm sure you guys have tried different parts on your car to come up with a rocking package. I just don't want people to think they can throw any ETP head on their current package and go 10.4..

I probably take it for granted since its my car but there has been alot of talk about my car on this forum and why hasn't it been to the track. There was alot of speculation that the car either didn't make the power it was supposed to or was broken since I didn't post any dyno or track times. If you go back in the internal section you will find my whole setup broken down in more than a few different posts.
As for comparing my car to Alans there is no comparison
1) F-bodys will 60' at least .1-.2 seconds faster than a corvette, thats all platform based
2) Alan was running a sheetmetal intake manifold which is a far cry from what I am running.
3) He is running a pro-shifted trans where I am running the factory T56
4) Alan is running 28x10.5w where I am running a class limited 26 x 10
Anywho they are two different cars and can't be compared in any way shape or form. Between the sheet metal intake and the correct cam I am sure he has a mininum 35rwhp more than my car does. And don't try and take anything away from Meaux, their program is top notch.

Phil,
Again my only issue was the way the title was worded. I used Allan's car as an example, not meaning they are the same but rather yours and his are well thought out "solid roller" packages.
Not taking credit away from Meaux, but I think they are starting with a 15* head. I could be wrong though.

Many people are interested in the times run with these heads. As to the comment about worrying some people think they can slap these heads on a M6 Vette, and run 10.40's, your kidding, right. Anybody that thinks that, needs to do their home work. Give the guy a break.

We just finished up an automatic with a very mild street setup. It went 10.8 in testing earlier this year, has more tuning and rwhp now. I am very happy with my setup, we spec'd everything here from the heads to the cam and didn't have the help of any of the big motor builders. If I were to build it again I'd definitely change the cam, .620 isn't enough lift.
