RHS 235, 23*....I would not be competitive in any class really, at my weight all motor. With some spray on the car it might dip into the 9's, right now it runs low 11's. Plus I am on a 325/50 drag radial. 10's on motor are coming soon though.

Since the tire rules have been clarified. Anything against running 2 classes?

And I see single power added listed on a few classes, methanol would not be considered a power adder correct?

You can run 2 classes.

Meth is not considered a power adder.

Put that way, it might be considered an illegal substance...

You can run two classes but be prepared to hot lap, there is only so much time to get the event in.

earlier this year it made 513 at the wheels, on 91 pump gas and through my original SLP 2OTL catback. i went 10.6 @ 131.xx mph last week on a motor pass to get my tune set for spray, crappy 60' but it still rolled out nicely. tires spun and then bogged the motor.

I'd bet two dollars his 680 - 720 hp is at the crank. Still very impressive though. You have to build a 700 hp SBC/LT1 to appreciate what it takes.

I have a prety good idea what it takes. How much loss you think I get through a high stall 4L60E and 12 bolt unlocked?

I was pretty sure but I had to ask. Those numbers are still VERY killer and well beyond what I am making. Then again I am still using stock LT1 castings

You made 602 rwhp from an NA LT1 through an unlocked auto and a 12 bolt? That's impressive! When I was making 550 rwhp through a TH350 and 9", I was making around 680 fwhp. You have to be close to 700 with yours.

This is not the only car or engine I have ever or am presently working on. This car is my toy.

I am still impressed with what we are getting out of stock castings. So No "This" engine is on juice. When the money is there I have a full 18* top end to go on it including the Hogans Sheet metal intake. From what I have seen in the Past there should be no problem making the numbers I want to make with them. I will be shooting for 570ish RW with a 300RW shot to follow. I still plan on using the same stock 97 PCM I have been using for years. Just not enough time or money to get it done before the shoot out.

I appoligize if I some how offended you. It was not ment that way. I figured yours was turbo'd I guess I was wrong and no power adders were needed for yours. Again Sorry

Next time I will just come and and say "Those numbers are F-ing Increadible! Great Job man!"
