Nice runs! Good mph. I would say put on some dr's and hit 11's but I think you will bust that 10 bolt if you do.

Going to try to push it a little farther this time on the stock 10-bolt. Bought a set of AFR 225cc heads and a Fast 90/90. The heads have already been to the machine shop to be milled and have a little extra port work done to them.

Get some drag radials and hope the 10bolt doesn't snap!

Good times!

Decided to go on and put nitrous on it just for fun. 12 bolt has been purchased, but it will not be installed until the stock 10 bolt breaks or it hits 10's.

Sorry no videos yet. Should have some from the next time we make a track trip. Runs are all made at tracks in NC. Car is about to go down for a few months. Going bigger cubes, 12 bolt, built tranny, and alot of nitrous.
