I have a couple of questions:

1. I take it this car isn't tuned SD since you're using the TS 100mm MAF, correct?

2. Can you share any pictures of under the hood and inside the car?

Thanks! And congrats on an awesome time!

I'll see if I can dig up some pics in the next few days, I think I have some at work.

No its not SD tuned, it has a factory 99+ F-body harness and PCM with the emissions removed. It uses the TSP 100mm MAF with the adapter harness. I don't think it is holding it back much but SD would be interesting to try at some point.

Thanks for the congrats!

Few questions I also missed:

Running a stock length Moser 12-bolt, 33 spline axles and spool, with 4.30 gearing. It could use a swap to 4.10's, as the 4.30's currently just give it enough to nudge past the traps.

We really appreciate the transparency from you guys on such a bad *** car man... And I for one look forward to seeing pictures!

A few more questions I have:

1. What fuel are you running?

2. What cc are the combustion chambers?

3. Did you have to fly cut the pistons?

Thanks man!

And when are these bad *** heads coming out? Any info on them??

Congrats guys, that is great! My only question is your said "Stock ShortBlock",
but you added ARP rod bolts?? ARP Rod bolts are not "STOCK" per say?
None the less, that is very impressive! Congrats!

Thanks for the congrats, but to answer your question:

I'll put stock rod bolts in it if it matters that much. I don't care if we scatter this engine or not. The rod bolts were added for dyno testing purposes, not to add durability to the engine while in the vehicle. The rod bolts are worth more than the shortblock to me. I think the stocker's will last quite a few passes myself, which should back up the time again if needed.

Sorry for the delay in pics, I've been busy and this car is on the lift with an immobile car under it, makes it hard to lower the car by myself.

I'll find out the info on the heads, I believe we were running 12 - 1 compression, but don't remember. I think at the race we had 113 Sunoco. It varies with what we can grab in the last 5 minutes before leaving town usually as we cannot keep fuel on out premises.

These pistons are flycut as we planned on testing larger camshafts than the MS4, but didn't make it that far before seeing the numbers flatline. MS4 made the best power with the 215cc heads.

I have the Ms4 and am looking to get heads. What cc can i go before having to fly cut?

Thats some funny stuff right there, but it's the truth when it comes to weight reduction.

Great times by the way!

Right. They definitely make a difference. I think what Joseph was getting at is we put them in the motor b/c we were engine dyno testing heads/cam combos with this short-block. Due to the amount of pulls we used them for longevity. However, if ARP rod bolts somehow make it an illegitimate time, we will throw the factory rod bolts in it when we go back to the track this month to bump the record again. The factory rod bolts should live long enough to do what we are looking to do. If the motor blows up, we'll just throw another one in the car and go at it again!

BMR Upper and lower A-arms up front with QA1 Double Adjustables and Madman limiters.

The back has a BMR X-treme bar, BMR LCA's, QA1 Single Adjustables, and Madman Torque Arm.

All the suspension is tuned by Madman!
