Great times man.. that actually gives me hope for my car's possible E/T's...if I can only get more seat time :/
Thanks, Almo. How long before you get to hit the track again? It's got to be getting close.
I will be heading to the track next Saturday.
Awesome, can't wait to see what you run. Are you still unported?
Yes, still non-ported and I actually put a bunch of things back in my car like fog lights, speakers, all insulation, and the cardboard/carpet are now back in the car. I have the spare/jack back in the car which I will take out to hit the track.
Also, I was thinking I might be able to make it out next week but a few things have come up already and I might not be able to go. 15th for sure though. :banana:
When you planning on heading back out. I'll keep saying it, your car has .40s in it. :rockon: :beer:
I am also going to be running on DR while I do this pre/post deal with Brian's Ported Eaton.

Nice job Larry.:beer: Think what you could do with a twin screw....:burnout:
Almo, I definately agree that this car has 40s in it. I probably will not run again until I have the new clutch in(spec 3+ with aluminum flywheel). It may also have a new upper pulley by then, but we'll see.
Lloyd, 9s for sure with a twin screw and I'm salivating at the thought of it, but I won't do it until I think I've got the goody out of the eaton. I'm going with an aluminum flywheel because my car already moves pretty good out of the hole and I want it to rev quick. We'll see how that works out as I know it goes against what most preach. Guess I'm a rebel. Lol.
Posi, it's a spec 3+ as Lloyd said, although I'm not sure for the reason he said, although it was a factor, kind of.
Trey193, I love the 3.90s for this combo, but when I add nitrous or a twin screw then I will go to a 28" tall tire or have to switch back to a 3.55. Not sure on exact rpm at the 1/4, but it's probably around 6200 or so.

sweet times man! you got some side pics of your car? with the drag tires on it ?
Very nice times. What rpm do you go through the traps at? Im wondering because I have 4.10's now, was going 124 and it felt like it was winding out on the 26" drag. I now have 27x10 m&h slicks mounted so it should be going through around 6,200 at most with tire growth. Hopefully the tracks are open next weekend, this my racing weather.
So you guys are experiencing no chatter with the 3+? Lloyd you and IronTerp both have them that I know of and neither one of you have chatter? I'll be ordering a clutch early this week and man I would love to buy the 3+ instead of the Ram twin disc. How much was it? Or I'll be looking tomorrow.
Thanks bro and I can't wait to see Almo run. He said he'll be at the track soon and I expect to see him improving as well.
I'm not positive, but I think it's right around 6200 give or take a few. Let me know how those m&h slicks work. I've heard pretty good things about them. I hear ya on the weather, it's already starting to warm up down here.
