Default built 5.0

ran a 92 5.0 stroked to a 306. 5 speed mods were forged short block, voodoo nitrous cam, heads, intake manifold. slicks and skinnies and a 200 shot

my mods in sig minus loudmouth, i now have a custom TD.


we did 2 runs. first motor to motor. we both got good burnouts and lined up.
we both hooked well and pretty even. i started pulking and pulled about 2 cars before we shut down at about 100.

second race he wanted to run n20. they called me up at the last second so
i didn't have a full bottle.borrowed a buddies with hardley any n20 in it because when we hid it i bogged. i turned the system off and saw the he was still behind me. i let off untile he was at my rear tire then hit it but he had momentum and got me by a 1 1/2. turns out his throttle didn't hit the wot switch.

we agreed on another race, both on the bottle. my 200 against his 200.

i have the motor to motor race on vid. will try to get it on here.

The 302 was bored to 306 not stroked. Sounds like those were some good runs.
