That's awesome, love this car!
I'm curious what it tips the scales at as well. What was the DA during the 8 sec passes?

The DA is always very good at Pacific raceways, if it's not raining, it is damn close to sea level

It weighed 3665# with me in it at the track right after I got done running a 5.60 in the 1/8 mile.... I did have to poop, but I am pretty sure it weighed about the same the next day when I ran the 8.64 and 8.73 quarter-mile passes

Nice.
I worked with my builder to make sure 2 and 4 had more clearance. We could see evidence that those two were a little tight when I took apart the stock short block after two years of running. Of course I didn't know what the stock clearance was, and I wasn't making power like Zach is. And it's an alum block......
It's hard to get a consensus on what is correct in these boosted setups. So hopefully his builder takes this in consideration. The K1 crank will help!
I'm stabbing my engine in today. Maybe, just maybe I'll get it in the dyno then make some hits this year before the rain shuts us down for the year.

Went down to LS Fest West in Las Vegas and ran the car a little bit with a stock bottom end 184,000 mile 5.3 with 706 heads. He swapped his cam in, head studs and LS9 gaskets. Also switched to a billet S485 (beast). Car was having issues launching hard but ran 8.9's all weekend around 156 mph on 22lbs of boost. We than decided to hit the dyno, on 22 psi it made 930 rwhp.
He really wanted to break 1k so we said screw it and put 40 dome psi on the waste gate. Ended up being 27 psi of boost and made this
Really wish he would have ran the car Sunday and maybe turned it up a little more on the dyno to make around 30 psi or over 1100 rwhp
Sorry I didn't record early enough
