Good job. I'd be curious to see how long that stock bottom end last on that 200 shot lol. I think it could last a long time if you keep the tune safe.
The th400 is what makes it all work good. They are hard hitting and rock solid if built right.

Good luck this year..

Thanks man, I believe one of the reasons it is still alive is due to the safety of the tune. I try to let the nitrous do the work instead of the timing. Timing melts stuff BTW - This pass was on a 250 shot, made 5 passes on the 250 so far and numerous on 200 and 225.

I agree on the th400 statement, that thing has taken a beating and just kept going. Who would have thought in like 1977 that the tranny in their old chevy van would be in cars running 9s or faster 30 years later. LOL.....

Good job man! Care to share how much total timing you had in the motor when you was running the 250 shot?

WOW, really late response

It's a custom spec from Greg at FTI, it's called a SST89-6. How's your new combo coming?

thanks guys for the props. Sorry for the late responses, I don't view this section very much.

Pump gas I only ran a 150 shot, not that you can't run more it's just that i was learning and didn't want to fry any parts.

Just finished my latest upgrades yesterday.

- Race Style true duals with Dynomax Bullets
- upgraded from -4 line to a -6
- upgraded from a .88 jet to a .93 jet
- deleted HVAC which was 45lbs

Headed out this sat to she what she will do in the heat. Hopefully the tune-up we are working at will allow for some better ETs and MPH.
