Too many people overlook the effectiveness of the smaller cams. You can still run a damn good ET without a donkey dick cam & have far better driving manners. Its also alot easier on the valve train too.

Now if your building a strip only monster then big cam away. but if its a split duty cruiser & every now & then track passes a small cam is hard to beat for most guys.

Mine is drag strip only. Like I said, price was attractive. 1.43 60' 10.6@128 shifting into 4th? I think the trans is on it's last leg with the nitrous. It feels much better on motor. That was with 5lbs in the bottle, and 700 psi on the gauge. Supposed to be 150 dry, I'm going to add 150 more.

Those times are nothing to dismiss with that mild of a set-up. Damn strong runner.

That is very strong looking pass. My car ran slightly faster on Sunday, but yours looks faster on video to me.

Thanks, I think it has more in it. I think the rear gave up the ghost on the last pass I made. I took it off the trailer saturday and drove it around to my garage and it was making some ugly noises. Guess a stock 130k mile 10 bolt won't hold up to too many sub 1.5 60's.

Damn, give me hope for my little honest 24 set-up on a small shot. I'm just hoping it'll make it to a deep 11 and I'll be more than happy.
