Simulated 1/4 pull...

Only got in two test pulls (track crowded and break/oil downs). Time slips attached.
Needs less fuel jet and more timing and she'll be in the 9's on the .62 pill.
Only slowed down a few tenths on motor.
Oh and converter is borderline too loose.

Did the John Deere Hygard swap today...should help on the initial "flash" and on the big end. Will log it and report back soon.

HyGard did nothing...Needs a new converter. She flashes straight to 6000 on the hit and blows the tires and the 60' is .3 off. Should be in the 1.3x range. Still traps 131mph so 9's are there just needs a little more $$ thrown at her.

What was removed?

Nice, I need to remove my door bars

It's kinda a pain but worth it @ #20. You do have to drill a hole (doorknob hole size) in the end of the door to slide it out. It will not come out otherwise. That assembly must be done before the door skin is put on.

I didn't realize they were that heavy!

Weight "sticky" says #6 but the two together with bolts was #18+

Buffed, polished, and waxed. Came out great. Should pick up 1 mph, ha!
Still looking for the 9's this Sunday at a private track rental....

Sooo close...converter is killing me...Time to order up one!

G Atsma

SOOOO close is right! Won't take much to do 9's. We're talking DETAILS here! lol

Needs a nitrous converter. This is on a FTI N/A Hard Hit 4000 not intended for nitrous at all. It flashed straight to 6,000 on the hit and is slipping 16-18% on the big end.

G Atsma

Oh OK! Sound like you have a handle on this! Best of luck!

What did you have to do to get the 15x10s on the back with the stock rear? I have a lq4 ta I'm looking at doing 243s or an ls3 top end. Do you think with a 243you would be around the same with the little bit more compression. Seeing this build gives me high hopes

I cut off the bump stops. They cleared fine with the 10 bolt and now the S60. The cathedral vs. rectangular argument continues....If it's not an all out drag car, I think some ported 243's would make more power most everywhere. I went LS3's because I already had them and a cam for the rectangular ports. GL with yours.

Sadly the argument is still going. You are just one of the first I have found that has a combo extremely close to what I am doing mince why I asked

Did you roll the rears as well?

ragtopz28

It's the tire size and rim offset that start to cause clearance issues. Just make sure you get the "F-body fitment" ones. My tires are 275/50-15 (26") so plenty of room. A 275/60-15 (28") should still clear without rolling.
