Update on the LT Dan race car Well I guess it is time to post up a little update on the "MikeP ****** upper" as YeloFevr has named it. Well I Finally got the car running and took it out for a quick spin tonight to make sure things are ok. Still needs tuned but that will be happening over the next week or 2. Here is a run down
The last 2 years the car was a forged 347. Stock crank, Callie's rods and -8.6cc dished Diamond Pistons. The Motor had stock heads, 224/232 .581/.595 115 lsa cam with stock ls6 intake, ALKY control, 1 7/8 Kooks and 4" mufflex exhaust. Car put down 676rwhp through a M6 and MWC fab 9 at about 14psi. Car went 10.33@136mph with clutch issues@ 3525lbs.
The new setup:
Same 347 short block 243 heads with sodium intake valves and 1.60 exhaust valves that I ported. 235/251 .621/.624 115Lsa Comp LSR blower cam, Victor JR and Swapped to a TH400. Pulley combo is the same as before 7.25/3.7 as last year but I have a 3.4 waiting to get installed. once I see what it does like this.
Cage gets Certified this Saturday so I should be hitting the track in about 3 weeks to shake this thing down. I am hoping to see it go 9.50's I can't wait. Here is a start up and idle video from tonight
