Default Another PB LE2 383

Hit the track again last night for the last test and tune. DA was 1400.

The track was pretty decent and I was able to get by with running 17psi in my hoosier QTP (usually 15) Im still spinning a little, but not enough to say its affecting the run.

1.58 60'
7.23 1/8 @ 94.8
11.35 1/4 @ 119.1

The car picked up its mysterious top end miss again (only at the top of 3rd) I've gone through hell trying to figure this one out.

The first pass of the trailer was an 11.36 without a miss but the back was kicking out so I added a little air into the air back and stiffened the right rear shock, it launched straight with a 1.57 60' missed hard at the end of 3rd and went 11.409. I added Air in the tires, Then went and Ran my PB and it missed again up top.

I think that could have been my 11.2 pass. But theres no could've,should've,would've in racing

DA corrected it shows an 11.1 pass. So Im pretty pumped that I can get this thing going faster.

Good deal! You also had a better short time. Figure that miss out, along with a good launch, and you'll have it!

Thanks, I think Im just going to build a new wiring harness for it this winter. Thats the only thing left that I havent changed.

I feel this things really movin' for having a cam that isn't giving it full potential and having absolutely no weight reduction. It will get slower though after it has a cage and subframe connectors on it next year, I guess Ill have to make that up with the N/O plate system thats on it

Those are the cam specs. Im also running the SA roller rockers from my hotcam kit that I had on the old motor.

The hundred shot is for next year. The plate kit is installed but Im just not ready to spray it at the moment. Id like to get the suspension dialed in on motor so I have a good place to start on the spray.

Thanks guys

Nice, indeed. That thing is a few suspension tweaks, seat time and good weather away from a 10.

I dont know if it has a ten in it or not. It seems that this is all I can get out of it at the moment. I thought about putting some DR's on it and see if I cant squeeze a little more out of the current setup.

Im pretty happy with it, and Ive thought about changing cams/springs/RRs this winter since im not really running a cam to get the most out of my setup.

But for having a car with Air conditioning and as driver friendly as it is, Im almost scared to change anything with how fast its running especially at this weight.

Thanks again everyone.
