Anonymous OP Unregistered A	well after about 4 years now i just bought back my A12 Superbee. it was in Michigan and John Hivko trailered it all the way himself with his fiancee to my home tonight. What a great guy and gal.Everything went smoothly,and the attention to detail on this car is 2nd to none. The car never looked better and it runs incredible. BOB K. designed the cam and spec'd it out. im thinking 12.0's with the stock G70-15 redlines and stock exhaust system. you know with good ATCO mindshaft air, im wondering if it'll go 11.90's it should be fun. 5008830-115-1544_IMG.JPG (363 downloads)

But apparently not. What is allowed? Any ramp rate? Any LSA? For a hydraulic,how do they determine the proper duration, measured at 0.004, 0.005, 0.006"... ?

BOB K. designed the cam for this car and i have no idea whats in it. i just got the car back yesterday and all i know it has 11.0 compression and a hydralic cam, i wonder if BOB K comes on here? maybe he could chime in? 5010626-115-1542_IMG.JPG (128 downloads)

The car should idle similar to a car with a factory installed cam. I am pretty sure faster ramps, more duration and wider LSA's are the order of the day. Getting old just means you were smarter than some and luckier than others.

Some of the advertised factory numbers were way out there and NHRA has never policed duration just lift. Getting old just means you were smarter than some and luckier than others.

Everything with this transaction went smoothly! I finally registered on this site...guess I'm a little slow, huh? Anyway, Chris...enjoy the car! Be safe with it. When I bought it, it needed a little TLC, and ran 13.99's. Last time out it ran 12.41 @ 109 mph. Of course, I had a lot of help to get it there, especially from Paul Petcou (Beeware), Jack Lee (roadtrip), Bob K, Tom Fedrigo, Bill and Andy @ PSI, Dave @ ECS, Frank Baddleston's parts, the list could go on and on. You know how it is.... Time to move on to the next project! John Hlivko John 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 2018 Challenger SRT Demon
