What is your raceweight ?
What kind of car is yours,I really like it.
I have access to a tube chassis comp elimnator figure I could get it done at about 2700lbs raceweight.

Thanks
Raceweight is 2535lbs (widh full tank and N2O bottle)
Car is an Opel Ascona http://www.nonameracing.se/photos/de...Projekt_Ascona
So there is no need to have a megaHPengine to run 7sec widh it, (Still stock PCM and intake) Havent really sorted out everything yet, tune is were rich (11.2 A/Fdropping to 10.3 at the end of the 1/4) so there should be more to Power in there...

Good intake flow but a bit low on the exh so the crazy cam makes up for that
