I ran a 13-1 377 with a super victor and holley hp950 with afr 210 heads with 1 3/4 headers and 3" pipes. I love those afr heads 3/4" thick decks are nice for sprayed cars.

Why not run a 2" header tube? I know a lot of sbc guys running those and they seem to pick up a good amount on the bottle.

I have 2 3" bullet mufflers under there, and an x pipe. I will wait untill i get this wheely thing sorted to get or build larger headers, i will probably go 2 inch, that would basically require a tubular k member, that would remove weight from the front and i dont need to do that now lol.
stock 12secz nice looking car by the way
Thanks..yep the cam definatley likes N20. Id like to have a wheelie problem actually, been working on getting this thing hooked up.

I cant run 2" now due to cleareance problems, 1 3/4 headers are against my starter now and the diagonal tube from that one is against the k member, on the other side, i cant get the oil filter in or out now, so bigger tubes on that side arent looking good either, i may change k members soon so that will make room, still on the fence about a rack, im not shure the trade offs are worth it yet

That sucks it won't clear, and too bad the tranny wasn't happy.

I hate when simple stuff quits working, but that's racing, any new videos?

I ran my car on the street when it was sprinkling, I left wheels up on a 250 shot lol.

I love that car, I got my cousin one for his 16th bday, we built a 355 with a th350 MVB 3500 stall with a 295 50 15 on pro stars, it was great the first time out at the local street hangout we spanks some blown LT1's *** =)

Then he had some beers and drove his friends around with no mufflers and got a dui lmao, that was the end of that.

ok i have the slip in my paws,
60' 1.36
1\8 5.95@117.71
1\4 9.298 @ 146.38

I dont get it, looks like a slow bracket car, ran good numbers too really
I know i need to do some fuel system work, sometimes the fuel pressure will go crazy, other times its dead on ( regulators start hammering, i think i need a larger return on the pump, i built the tank with a -6 return, thats what the old pump had, new pump is - 8 ) i tried it with more nitrous but it went slower and was bucking like hell, didnt clear up till 3 rd gear
