how to(hopefully) make a 346 go 8 seconds

Here's a little shot of the madness that I have been dealing with for the last couple of weeks. http://www.dfwstangs.net/hosting/KECHME/resize126.jpg

Sean, when are you going to make some shakedown passes?

PS, stay away from the "rocket cars." <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

It looks like you've been busy! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> When are you headed to the track? I need to witness this!

Sean, I am going to get with Lissy and get a little side insurance policy going so when you light that bad boy...... J/K man, awesome <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Are you comming down to HRP to run it? Looking good <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> You are starting to become a <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" />

Re: how to(hopefully) make a 346 go 8 seconds

George, I'll try to stay away from those GD rocket cars <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> . Trevor I'll be ready to run it as soon as it's ready to run, In english that means I still have a few logistics to work out <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .Jason, the motor is borrowed . The short block has a nice set of pistons and rods and good hardware (all ARP) but thats about it. The compresion ratio is 10.6 to 1, and the heads are done by Trevor Johnson. This is an exercise in N20 tuning, I need to make almost 3hp per cubic in to put enough power to the ground to get the car in the 8's. Is it possible? who knows, but I'm willing to try. Dave, lissy's got a policy on me already, if you pay the premiums for a month or two she might just cut you in <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> .

<hr /></blockquote>Mir, it's very close. The rear upper n20 solenoid actually sits inside the SS scoop. I just ran out of places to put solenoids, so I had to get creative. Rob, I was going for the stealth look and some where along the way I gave up . Hey, it looks stock with the hood closed <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .
