Good kill. I thought about doing an Eaton conversion for awhile, but it just seemed like to much work when you figure all the pieces that need changed. Just went with spray instead.

Good kill.
I know the guy with the red Mach 1. It has an Eaton with an automatic tranny. He probably had the shaker off to ice the blower/intake.
Next time you come down, let me know!!

Everybody was running slow due to the hot nasty air but I didn't care, just wanted an idea of what she would do, with some better driving and some winter air I have no dount I can do some high 11's@118-119.
But anyhow, on the way back there was these two guys together, one was in a C5 with black C6 wheels and the other was in a red Mach with black bullits. I had seen them running that night and noticed the Mach had a roots blower of some kind, he had also removed the shaker in order to fit the blower. He didnt choose to show his times so I didt know what he was running, but it looked to run ok, beat his buds C5 a few times.
I see them on the way out jumping on I10 so I decide to follow them, we lined up at about 45 and I hoked 3 times, he knew what to do and we took of, this seemed to be his best spot as he hung in there till I hit 4th and started moving out on him, by 125 I was 2 cars up and shut down, the blower whine was pretty loud but it didnt seem to help him this time. We did a few 65-70 rolls and he got beat pretty bad, I mean 3-4 cars and shuting down short because there was no point to keep going. I thought for a boosted mach it would have done alot better then that but oh well. [SIZE=4]maybe it was a 1.7L on 6 pounds or some ****?[/SIZE]

Just an FYI for ya, Kenne Bell doesn't sell and has never sold Roots style blowers. They sell twin screw blowers which are totally different. As different as a petrol engine is from a diesel.

it seems dan 03mach has gone into the bs calling buisness and not doing a good job. he was calling bs on some guy on ls2 and got shot down and now he was calling bs and got shot down here. if you look at the videos in his sig you will see him staying with or very close to what says to be a 450 rwhp cobra. i dont know sprayed but everything i have seen him say has seen to be true in his other posts. i say it seems to be true because generally the people he raced show up and post to. examples being the 350z he raced and the mach1's friends.

Nah, Dan's ok, he's just defending his own
What would you say if some guy with a bolt-on Mach came in here and said he beat a 450rwhp blown LS1? Of course you'd have some doubts. But when you later found out that it wasn't tuned, had two spark plug wires loose, and the driver only had one leg, then things start to make sense. That's an extreme exageration of what happend here.
Nice kill Sprayed98!

Like I said, I am not one to come on forums and make stuff up. Everything I post is 100% real, although I was off this time being that the Mach had a eaton and not a KB, that was just a bad assumtion I guess.

I found some more info on this mach 1, he has ran a best of 13.8 @ 101mph... so I could see a highly modded ls1 pulling him 2 cars..
j/k - I know nothing about this mach 1, Nice kill though!!
