It's a forged 347 with h beam rods and forged pistons stock crank just balanced the rotating assembly, heads are 243 ls6 hand ported by a buddy of mine, he went to SAM in houston and he's pretty goog and not expensive at all.

I run similar mph but my ET's are much slower than yours. I have a best ET of 11.8 @ 119mph N/A and 11.0 @ 128mph with 150shot.

What size shot are you spraying?

Thanks,

So you were only running one stage on the 9 second run? Was that through your f2 or the direct port? What tires? Oh yeah what size stall?

F2, TIRES ARE M/T 28X10.5-15 DRAG SLICK. THE CAR RAN SMOTH BUT I KNOW IT CAN HIT THE 9'S ON A 150 SHOT IS JUST THAT I WANTED THAT 9 SEC. PASS SO BAD THAT I INSTALLED THE 200 PILLS SO I COULD COME HOME HAPPY .
