............. Needed a little bigger powerplant which was built by BPA but I think it's still impressive since we still got that STOCK T-5 and the car is still EFI with a 26" slick. Weather was good but track was terrible 60ft's were almost a 1/10 off :(

Motor pass: Pretty much setup for nitrous, just ran it to break it in basically and it surprised the hell out of us.

Nitrous pass: only cut 1.44 60ft usually cuts 1.36-1.38 so there is definately some room for improvement.

Nice passes, even banging it off the rev limiter on the first two gears!

Nice run!
How much nitrous to get there?

Sick89LX
02-07-2004, 06:53 PM
It's a basic 2 stage dry system with a 175 in the first and 50 shot on top. It's probably not even getting that considering the car only has 30lb injectors on it:p

Car has 3.55 gears in it, that's why it kind of bogged on the motor pass. We still had the timing set from when we first fired the motor, the last thing we were expecting was an 11.1 pass:eek: especially since it's setup for nitrous.:)

Hope you don't lean it out and hurt something with that small of injector and a dry system.

what's the motor combo?? looked good!!:D :D

Sick89LX

Motor is a BPA built 331 with AFR 185's, comp cam, Systemax intake, and 30 lb injectors with Pro-M. Car has stock computer, stock fuel rails, and STOCK T-5 with a FMS clutch. and that was maybe the 40-45 pass on those slicks.

Yes there is room for improvement. Some new slicks, and suspension tweaking and we'll for sure be in the .60 especially on a clean pass.

Yes it's actually now called San Antonio Raceway. It usually hook but the car before us did an awesome burnout and dragged half the waterbox to the starting line:rolleyes:

is it a stock block?

Sick89LX
02-08-2004, 12:00 AM
LOL yes it is...........but then again whats the point of having an r-block and you still have a stock tranny behind it. Kind of defeats the purpose;)

thats a indicator of detonation. I'd sure backoff on the timing to see if it went away.

Man, i'm jealous. How much does the car weigh. I have a 6-speed with 4.10's and it bogged on me all day.

Holy Shit man, I am in the process of putting a combo VERY similar to that and that supassed my goals as well. I AM ON CLOUD NINE, and can't wait to get mine running! What are the specs on the cam and what do the heads flow?

thanks, but I think it was just some 93 that was still mixed in the car from when we first fired the car a couple days before.

Will have nothing but race fuel in it come Wednesday, hope to be back on posting some better times:)

The cam is just an off the shelf Comp Cams no special grind still hydraulic and only spinning to 6200. The heads are box stock AFR's 185, not sure what they flow.......

Is it one of the Xtreme Energy cams?? I'm putting together a 347 w/ AFR 185s and a Holley Systemax, and was looking at a couple of their cams.

I couldn’t tell if you had a roll bar in the car or not.
Are they going to let you run that fast again without one?

Nice passes. I have almost the same combo, with exception of it being carbed. I would love to see some 9.XXXX out of it.:D

Sick89LX
02-11-2004, 04:28 PM
Yes car has a 6 point Autopower roll bar. I love our track as long as you got a helmet you can run:p Hell only recently did they start to tell us we needed a fire jacket but other than that we have had no problems.

Hell I have got away for years without running a cage, then again my piece is slow as fuck:(

Car weighs in about 3000 w/driver :)

Sure am!!:D I've gotten some good motor times so far, sub 7.4XXX, but, I'm really waiting to see what this little nitrous shot is going to do! Hey Tex, you playing any soccer this season?
