I'm curious. Has anyone with a 13-6 kit with or without a pulley hit 200mph? If not, what's the top speed everyone has seen with their respective GT500's? I'm curious how much the extra HP I have with the kit (13-6 w/o pulley) will help achieve 200mph.

Yeah you could eventually hit 200 given a long enough stretch of road. But that kit alone won't be enough to hit 200 in a sanctioned mile event. To go for 200 on a public stretch of road that will need to be over a mile long is a death wish IMO.
I agree. I am just curious as to if 200 can be hit in two miles rather than in 4-6 like it took Ford when it was stock.
Derek hit 193 in his with a 13-6 kit in a standing mile. So I'd feel comfortable saying around 1.5 miles. Hot Rod hit 185-ish in the Mojave Magnum mile and a half event in a bone stock car. So 1.5 easy.
If I remember correctly I believe one of Derek's videos shows him keeping his foot in it past the 1 mile finish (I'm sure he simply missed the little finish flag at that speed ;-) ) and hitting 200.

Damn!! Was still climbing pretty good!! Whats done to it?
found this on the comments on the you tube video
at the time of this run, this car had a custom revan racing 13-6 kit
which includes, 15% lower pulley, ford racing twin 65mm TB, off road H-pipe, 127mm JLT CAI, and Lund racing tuned for MS109 race fuel
I was wondering what a 13-6 consisted of. Now i know. Thanks!

Derek has the fastest mile with the 13-6 Kit. In his case he opted for the optional 15% OD lower pulley at the time and a race gas tune for MS109 Race Fuel and an off road H Pipe.
With all of that said, I am confident that we could get very close to 200 MPH with long tube headers, 10% or 15% OD, E-85 or Race Gas Tune and the trunk mounted Ice Cell with a 55 GPM Pump with the correct hose routing. These cars lose so much timing by the end of the mile. Everything is there up until about the 1/2 mile and then temperatures skyrocket between the 1/2 mile and 1 mile mark. When this happens it pulls timing dramatically.

Van,
What temps skyrocket? Coolant, oil, etc.? Off the bat, I'm guessing coolant, which can be fixed with a bigger radiator and running pure water with a 40 pound pressure cap.
Thanks,
Mike
IAT'2 gets hot causing the computer to pull the timing.

Using a methanol kit like Snow Performance or Alky Control would work well too.

Not as well as the ice cell. We've tried them all. With and without Meth, Water/Meth, with and without the ice cell.
End of the day the ice cell with the 55 GPM pump and correctly plumbing will out perform any meth kit on any day in a mile race.
Derek probably hates the day he met me. I've fed his addiction like Rick James!!

Then after a built L&M Engine, Kenne Bell 3.6 LC Supercharger, E-85 Return Style Fuel System, Suspension Mods and well, just plain old going nuts..........

My 13-6 kit setup could hit 200 MPH in about 1.25 miles from a dry stop. That's the most I'm going to say about that.
I had held the throttle a bit past the mile unintentionally because the big mile sign I was accustomed to seeing out my peripheral vision had fell down from the wind. They told me it was down before I ran so I was ready and when I saw the flashing lights I let off. For those that don't know, there are lights past the mile sign that are really visible and they flash soon as you cross the mile mark to alert you.
I would expect 200 MPH with a 13-6 kit and 1.5 miles of room to accelerate. In my opinion the 13-6 kit has more than 193 in a mile. Would love to have another shot at it now that I have a lot more passes under my belt.
