Little experimenting

Took the air filter off to see what happened.....well, the car went up through the rpms so fast it caught me off guard and I missed both shifts. It was a 9.25 at 147.

Thanks! Car actually feels slow. Lol Don is nothing short of a genius. I spent 1/4 of what I spent over the first for years and, knock on wood, no problems. No relying on race gas, no more holding my breath on each pass. Total 180. Back to planning track trips and not shop drop offs

Can't thank don enough and he's become a great friend even if he talks funny.

Feel free to ask any questions, no secrets with us, full disclosure.

Budget build, planned right, works...

I'd be interested to know about your front and rear suspension setup (shocks, alignment, sway bars, etc.). Car really hooks up nice!

Front:
no sway
Lakewood 90/10 drag shocks

Rear:
I have the Coilovers from the Farks cars after the 2012 season. I believe they are pedders super cars with modified spring pockets to fit a better drag spring.

BMR drag bar set in the middle
Farks no hop upper control arm bushings
Bushing inserts not solid
Adm 15" conversion
18 psi in the tires everytime, never change it

Vic jr with a 1" spacer and a custom elbow. I can get a picture up tonight.

The breather is one on the oil fill, one coming off the drivers side rear valve cover both tied into a bresther/ catch can. Don can explain it better.

3.70 gear

Converter is a custom built Pro Torque Revolution series. They don't rate them like regular converters meaning no specific stall speed. Built around the car. I can foot brake it to like 5k though. Lol
