ive had the same setup with 373 and went a 6.9 on 125 shot...weve been a 6.8 on 150 hit this car...the 200 was thrown in and we basically made the same power we did on the 150 since the da was shitty during these passes...as the car sits on 150 it will go a 6.7 and on 200 a 6.5 with stock gears...if we go with 373 the rear will most likely break...and since we drive it to the track thats a no no

we used to run a 255/50/16 mt radial...but since tracks r hit or miss we went with a mt slick 26x10 et drag for consistancy which are slowing us down some...on a radials id prolly gain a mph or 2...

car only runs 7.8 on motor with those long gears...

and we spin it to 6700 or so...been doing it for years...(with some tricks)

whos the fastest cam with spray? 10.3 right?
and whose been the fastest with a stock bottom end? think it was a high 9 right?

I did and guess what still noone with a stong longblock cam only, on spray running in 10s at all...

and we spin it to 6700 or so...been doing it for years...(with some tricks)

Now I know how you get more power and make a better run than most, cuz others tend to not shift that high and take the power that high of rpm, Let me guess you are NOT on stock bottom end parts/hardware?

Guys, he said it has to do with oil

Probably runs a quart or 1/2qt over full. (I do)

Or a stronger relief spring in the oil pump.

I cant wait for my car to be very similar to that Daniel.

Late Model Performance = super mechanics. Fastest turn around and best prices. My car will be back up there later today for more work. Make me a street legend Daniel haha.

As for the video, looked like homeboy in the black T/A cut a helluva light too he was right there with you then you see at half track he comes freight training around you.
