thanks,
It's a forged 347, afr heads, home built turbo kit with a Tubonetics TC 78.
I have a T400 with 2.75 rear gears. The gears are for gas mileage, i still drive this to work etc. I have been driving it for a couple of years on this set up but didn't get to a track until last night. It did 6.1 in the 1/8 then fell flat on it's face in third gear. We don't know why, it felt like it was running pig rich but the WB read 11.3 to 1?
Here are some pics. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showpost....4&postcount=15

Congrats on a great performer! What is the elevation at Spokane, like 2800-3000 or so?

Here is a link to the same race but a different view. And the Turbo T/A for sale is mine. Damn good runs man. Are the internals in your motor still the same as the ones it came with when I sold it to you?

I worry about the factory main bolts sometimes. I built another shortblock with studs but no use changing until something happens.

Right on yeah that things looks like it came out of the hole pretty hard. What was your 60' and MPH in the 1/8th? Hopefully they will open the track next year I should have mine up and running and tuned by then if I still have it I wouldn't mind giving you a run.

Actually I usually hit the tires a lot harder with a 2 step. It went bad a couple of days before I went to spokane, I sent it back to LPE to get it fixed.
I left at 105 kpa, basically 0 boost on the first run.
It didn't list the MPH on the time slip, I think it will be around 116?
It went 6.1 in the 1/8 with a 1.5 60 ft on the first run.
On the second run it did a 6.2 in the1/8 with a 1.7 60 foot leaving at idle (I wasn't ready, confused about the bracket racing thing)

Nice, I have family in Libby, infact I am going camping up there next summer!! Those are some pretty awesome times for that altitude. You should come down to portland and se how much faster you run (and that way I could check it out 
)
