Post up your most accurate dyno #'s, vehicle weight, and best ET. Please include conditions for both, i.e. temp/pressure/humidity if known...

KB 2.6 HO

626 RWHP @ 21 psi
4080# w/Driver
10.34@130
ST Motorsports tuned

WHIPPLE 3.4 (Blower alone)

665 RWHP @ 13 psi
4080# w/Driver
10.007@136
RET Tuned

WHIPPLE 3.4 + JUICE

797 RWHP @ 16 psi
4080# w/Driver
9.67@141
RET Tuned

(All 3 examples were ran at Cal Speedway at about a 3800 DA)

Dyno and track vids can be found in my sig link and choosing 'videos' page from my Upcrowd car page...:hi:

I didn't spray on that 9.67 pass till almost the 1/8 mile mark and ran a 6.21 1/8 mile @113. The next week I sprayed the car right after the 60' mark at a local 1/8 track and ran a 6.17 1/8 @110 with my converter going out and floating at 6 grand - so I assume my 797 rwhp set-up had a bit better in it than a 9.67

I think it was good for a 6.0x 1/8 and a 9.3x-.4x but I started the TT build before I could find out...:beerdrink:

i have a question... why are all these cars so heavy?

is it the combition of cage + blower + ironblock?
Mine still had an aluminum block then. It also had the BMR Xtreme antiroll bar, too.

And now that I have the iron block and the big ice box, it's probably another 100lbs heavier now.

Cause they are fat pigs to begin with and it seems once you start making big power, the weight you have to add seems to always be greater than the weight you can take away...:angry1:

Having said that, I've been trying hard and hoping to be in the 3700# range w/driver next time out.
