Nice number numbers MM, my friend Intmd8 with his LT1 single was trapping right around there too... Harl's record is 142mph I think when he was a hydraulic stock bottom end car, go get him!

David,

Great runs, I can see you are starting to get a handle on it now, you're getting faster and faster every time out I think you have done a nice job of proving your point with the new set up

Well done and keep it up. BTW I have a found a buyer for my old turbo and am no longer retaining anything of the old kit It's outta there

Good run!! 138mph should be good for a high 9 with a TH400 w/t-brake. But even with the six-speed, you should be able to crack a 10.30 with perfect traction and shifting. Glad to see your car is coming together! How does it feel??

Get a TH400 with 3.42 gears, and you'll go 9.90 @ 140.

Congrats.

Getting better... very nice.. I know your not happy yet, but think about it... you should at least have a smile on your face. Looks like you were running down the guys that ran before you! Our track dont play that.

Going to the North South June 19? If so, see you there.

on the contrary i am DAMN happy

get the last of these shifting gremlins out and keep the set up still long enough to work out the suspension and i think my goal of 10.x at 13x on pump gas will be achieved.. all this extra mph is icing on the cake... a LOT of icing!

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' 'bout!

It was obvious that with trap speeds you were pulling,that if you could ever get the holeshot down (and the boost up), you would drop them ET's right down!

Keep on pressin'!
