New best on Motor.

[00SS]

I still didn't get a chance to run the bottle on Friday... I went to hit the button and i hear this loud hissing noise coming from the back seat.. so i'm 1/2 way down the track trying to turn the bottle off.. until i could get to it and figure what was leaking. It ended up being the fitting and not the blow off valve.. but never-the-less it dumped the whole bottle :mj:

Anyway, my best pass was a 12.33 @ 110.9 w/ 1.7 60' rt=.576 i have no doubt, if i can ever get to the track with a fully operational bottle and some ET Drags i can pull a 11.5 - 11.7.
I still cannot flash the stall without smoking them to the 60' mark.. all of my runs are pretty much off idle (800-1000rpms).

The bad part is i was taking a buddy of mine home and raced a cobra on the tollway and blew 3 gear at a 60 punch.... had to drive 30 mi. back home in 2nd gear only. talk about shit luck... this is the 4th time i have blown the tranny... only 2 weeks on the last build w/ kevlar bands. wtf: I'm putting her in the shop tomorrow for a custom 'race build' for a pretty penny.. but they are guaranting the work... the tranny should hold upto 800 hp. If i ever have that much hp/tq.. it will be a happy day

anyway, take care

HOw much Pony power do you think you are running???

We were thinking mine was about 400-415 ................

well, you got me beat there.. i haven't dynoed in a while.. last time was with a Lid & Headers and it was 327 rwhp 341 rwtq. I would estimate now with all the other stuff done... maybe 360-370 rwhp and 395-400 rwtq. My stall is murder on trannies.. the clutches/bands can't hold it from a highway punch.. it seems to want to unlock and spool.. and that's no good for 3rd band.

I really need tire and brakes after that.. the Nitto DR's aren't that great for the track.. they are awesome street tires though. I can't flash the stall, as the first time i tried on Friday I got sideway and almost went into the other lane.. made the guy nervous as hell (i new him) I hoping with good temp's, new built tranny, & some ET Drags.. to hit 11's all motor. Well, that's the plan anyway
