Heading out to Muncie dragway friday night for some test& tune/grudge race action.I've been driving this thing on the street since 2010 and the LM2 and I have the tune pretty well sorted out.Any and all guesses are welcome. Car is a 67 Satellite,only light weight parts are the M-1 single plane intake and the Edelbrock heads.Has factory iron A/C(working),304 stainless turbo manifolds,5 gallon air/water intercooler tank in trunk,M.S.D. boost timing master, 20 gallon fuel cell,750 proform carb. Crane powermax cam 260-204 dur..427"lift IN. 272-216 dur. .454" lift ex. 112 lobe sep. 8.0:1 compression 383 .030" o.s.Stock 1966 bottom end.2 1/2" exhaust to rear axle. Ancient 11" fairbanks 2500ish stall convertor,Copes pro street valvebody,3.55 gears in an 8 3/4 rear. 315-60-15 tires and homemade(dimensionally copied)caltracs.Calvert 9 way adjustable rear shocks, very"tired" front shocks.I'm running 15 lbs. boost read in the intake plenum, and plan to fill the cooler tank with ice. My best guess on weight is about 3850-3900 with my 205 lbs. aboard.If they have the scales open at the track I'll get a real weight on it. This thing was built to be a cruiser, not a race car.

I'm going to take a wild stab at it and say 11.70s @ 120 mph.

I agree, based on the very simple formula that you doubled the hp of a normally aspirated motor due to 15 psi boost.

I'll give it a go, but boosted combos take some work to get the ET...Erroring on the side of "I have the tune pretty well sorted out", I am gonna go out on a limb and say 10.45....with more mph than it should have for the ET...if it hooks.

see I'd agree before reading Dzuters posts, he has a 360 w/ about the same tame build and he's deep into the 10's. He does have a better stall and trans brake... I'll say your 1st few runs will be in the mid-11's and get better as you figure out what it likes best

Yeah,I saw his times but I just don't see it going any better than a mid to low11 @120 ish.If it got anywhere close to a 10 I would be thrilled to death.

What turbo(s)?

A lot depends on how well the brakes hold. Building boost on the starting line is a real pain on the foot brake.

Mine went 11.70's@123mph on 9~10psi off the foot brake my third pass in the car first night out. I haven't made a pass without the trans brake since!

If you can hold boost at the line it will easily go in the 10's. Should go 125mph+ regardless of traction.

I have the same chinese GT-45 you have.It will build boost on the line easy enough,but it's never been on a clean, prepped surface.It's made tons of"passes" on rural test tracks,but I don't know if it will spin,hook&go,or hook&bust 8 3/4.

A 4500 stall with a trans brake and slicks hasn't broken an 8 3/4 yet. You should not have to worry

Try leaving at 5psi to start, if it hooks just keep adding boost. Start with the shocks full tight.

BTW...I have a s475 Borg Warner turbo, not the gt45.

Sorry about the turbo mistake,my bad.I had planned to take it as high as the brakes will hold then back it down next run if it spun.

Any pics of the set-up? I'm already planning my next build and could use a few ideas.
