9.50 first time out. Dave's 98 410 CID THD400 with a 250 DP Fogger runs 9.507 @ 139.75. It was his only run tonight and at the 1,000 ft mark started bouncing off the rev limiter all the way to the 1/4, it needs a gear change. We should be ready with the gears before the weekend, stay tuned. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: 9.50 first time out. Very nice numbers, can't wait to see what it does with the proper gearing. Should be at least a bottom 9 sec car. What were the conditions at the track for this time of year? Is Atco at sealevel or very close to it?

Re: 9.50 first time out. Thanks guys. It looks like we have a converter issue and maybe a gear change is needed. The dyno graph below is just a converter change, same tuneup with no other changes. The only run we have was with the first converter.
We will go back to testing after PRI with the new converter/gear.

Re: 9.50 first time out. The MPH is low for nitrous but remember that it was on the rev limiter from about the 1,000 foot mark on. We will try to make it to ATCO on Saturday if the weather holds. We got the cage certified and the new converter is in. I think it's still needs a gear change, we will find out when we run it.
