Lol, that's how high I turned mine!
Bottom end is still going strong. I did fail on my valvetrain setup and hurt some valve tips. Valvetrain control is the biggest deal to turning 7500 + rpm

My engine is a 2009 LY6 out of a van that had 5k miles on it when I got it and has been running 10's in N20 or N/A form every since with stock short block and heads. I did add arp rod bolts. 3pedals former N/A engine and my engine are similar.

I don't have any LS motor at all at this time. Just trying to get info on combos that work. I currently have a 491 BBC that I am getting dialed in. But like the fact of the junkyard bottom end and no more expensive bottom ends.

.
Car is 3350 with me in it. So it's not extremely light . I've been a best of 1.44 60 ft on drag radials with consistant 1.45-1.47 . Car has a 9 inch with 4.10s and with trz rear double adjustable lowers and a antiroll bar with rear coilovers.

I hit the car with a 100 shot and has been 10.08 at 132 on pump gas pulling 8 degrees out just to be safe.i spun off the line a little and was only able to get a 1.40 60 ft. Winter plans call for porting the heads a different intake maybe the mast intake (if i dont do a cam) and carb .if I do a cam then ill go with the victor jr . And of course some more nitrous . Any more info feel free to ask

I've talked with a few people and they said for me to just keep the cam I have cuz I won't see much Of a difference changing it out. most recommended using the money for a cam and go with the mast intake. Anyone have any recommendations as far as that goes?

You can run the 100 hp shot times N/A if you flycut the pistons. Only way a cam change won't make sense is trying to stay in stock confines. BRE Brett bauer spec'd out 3pedals and my camshaft. You can find the specs in his (3pedals) thread but you will need to make other changes. If your looking to go that route.

3pedals first build and mine have the same BRE camshaft I believe. I have a 4800 rpm stall

What is the fastest you have been on motor? And, have you run nitrous on this combo? Did the converter do okay with the N2O?

Yea I'm not really looking to fly cut pistons. So maybe that's why the cam guys said what they did. So maybe ill just stick with porting the heads getting a circle jr and a bigger carb and start hitting this thing with 150-175 and see how it goes .
The other option I've been throwing around is put this motor in a notch make it 500 lbs lighter and with a th350 and a 8.8 and really see what it could do . But then it'll just be another mustang at the track lol

I removed the bottle when I stepped it up. Its always the other guys excuse when they lose. "Oh... but he's spraying" "He's spraying 500hp"

Fastest MPH N/A is 135.20 that was just before the heat hit. For some reason event days are some of the hottest ever it seems. I have made small changes that I think are going to bring it up some over the next few weeks.

fly-cuts are some of the easiest and cheapest of those mods. still should be able to spray with small <0.100" cuts. thick crowns.

.100 cuts here and not spray'd....yet
Little leery on that just yet...other issues to deal with and get dialed in before I even think about it.
Now the motor I copied "should" put me where I want to be...and IF I spray it (100hit) I'll need a license...and I don't want to go there.....but never know once it is dialed in and I'm ready to leave the track anyway

There are a few guys on here ready to help in any way they can...timing...cam help....what they're combos are...And I along with some others can't thank them enough.
