Tucson AZ,
Just curious as to what some of your cars weigh relative to the E.T's. I know there's been a lot of talk about weight savings lately and I was just curious to see how those weight savings relate to E.T and how streetable the cars are respectively.

4025# after working hard to remove weight from it.

10.60s @ 128 mph last time out in Sacramento. Best of 10.61 @ 133 mph with 1.75 60' numbers at Speedworld (RIP). I've been working on the launch since then and got it down to a best of 1.43 60' in Tucson. (sig photo from Tucson) I just need to get it to launch like that - then turn the boost back up to see what it will do. (and hopefully not break it)

It still has all the creature comforts it came with from the factory - AC, PS, Stereo... you know the regular stuff. Absolutely perfectly streetable other than the cab being a little tight for my 6'2" frame and having room for the rollbar behind the seat. Mainly a street cruiser that goes to the track when possible.

I posted on the other weight thread earlier, but I'll double up:
Last time I weighed my Satellite with the old 383, it weighed 3600 (3775 with my 175 aboard). Since then: New motor w/ alum. heads and alum waterpump & housing. New wheels are a lot lighter than the steelies that it used to run on and it now runs mono-leafs. I'm guessing it tips in at just over 3500 now (???).

Best ET is in the sig, and it has run within a tenth of that the last dozen or so times down the track (which for me covers 2 years). I have not had much tuning time with it though, as every time I've been to the track in the past two years, I've entered races and had 2 hits, then had to dial in for eliminations. I think there's a lot left to find with some jetting work. It is a complete street car; has full exhaust, working heater, wipers, windows, horn, stock full interior, ect.... It is typically driven to and from the track. Last driven: YESTERDAY!

I built my 1971 Duster to be raced on pump gas on the streets of south east L.A.,that didn't happen due to health issues The car weighed 3450 lbs with me in it with two batterys and a full tank of fuel, it is a ladder bar coilover rear suspension car with a 400 stroker motor, 518 C.I., lader bars and coil overs, three inch exhaust to the rear bumper, full interior and so on. It has ran 9.993 at 134.6 MPH on Oregon non ethanol 91 octane pump gas through the exhaust with the air cleaner on To get the most you can out of any combination you need to make every part from the front bumper bolts to the rear bumper bolts work the best you can get them to, motor, converter,tranny, exhaust, ignition, fuel delivery, front and rear suspension and so on Test,test and then tests some more Two adages come to mind on cars and going fast, big is best, motor, tires exhaust, and light is right in every part, crankshafts,pistons wrist pins and rods, wheels and tires, total weight and so on

My 68 Barracuda wieghs 3500lbs with 230lbs of driver in it. Its been an 11.18@120.5 with a 360 and is very streetable, I don't even own a trailer. If I had known it was going to be so nice today I would have driven it to work.

I am in the mid 10's with a mild Hemi even with my ignition issue...Car weighs 3250lbs...When I get an all aluminum 604 built, it will run a little quicker I would think..Very streetable. I drove it to a car show this year, and down to the shop a bunch and to work one time...Neighbors are still complaining about that.

As you would expect its best times have been in sea level air. I think once I finish tweaking it should run .20s and .30s in bad air.
11:1 .040 over 360
Stage II Shady Dell Edelbrock RPMs with 2.05 intake valves
Solid Roller 258@.050 .650ish lift IIRC
Erson Roller Rockers
Gasket matched Victor?(not the tallest one)
Holley 830
TA 4500 8" converter
727
3.91 gears
TTI Headers with a full exhaust system.


Its a big cam and it likes to idle fast(1400 out of gear) but it drives really good on the street. Its averaged a touch over 13mpg on the two drag weeks I have done.

I really think it has a little more in it just like it is but not much at all. I changed mufflers and that really woke it up and messed up the tune and I believe its super rich. It sped up leaning it out in sea level air but I didn't have time to mess with it much more than the one change I made.

My '70 'Cuda weighs 3780lbs.,ran 10.70's at 125,on the motor on DOT tires last time out, there's more I it, as I got no tuning, but track closed shortly afterwards.
It's streetable, drove it on the Car Craft Anti Tour in 2011 and 2012, each being roughly a 750 mile round trip in 2 days, and drive it around quite a bit, going to work, cruises or just for the fun of it.

My dart is 2850 with me in it, but bought a Indy maxx block to lighten it up a bit over the winter and a few other changes. As of now, it will do 8.70's when it hooks. Still tuning it, waiting to run an all out pass still. full race car. just a fun car, nothing special.
