You correct to sea level. Not some arbitrary number.
And the track I run at gets negative numbers. (We are spoiled with our good air here)

4th pass on new combination and went all most 156 with way wrong converter I am quite happy.

With the power it makes it should run 160-161 in good air with car sorted out. Should be able to get some low 8.50s maybe some high 8.40s out of it.

Look at time slip 5.55 to the 1/8 and still ran 8.70 its hunting mid track on.

Thanks for the compliments guys.
We will work on see what we can get out of it. 😀

Adding 2.5mph to the 155.6 shows about 900hp.

That thing is pretty impressive for sure.

Great numbers Brett!!! I was waiting to hear what it would run. That poor converter...lol. Doing final assembly on the engine with the w8's you did for me. Should have it on the dyno in the next few weeks.

That sure is awesome!!!.....
883fwhp on the day under those conditions>
60 Foot E.T. : 1.21
1/8 Mile E.T. : 5.49
1/8 Mile Trap Speed : 123.85
1/4 Mile E.T. : 8.70
1/4 Mile Trap Speed : 154
at 0

Thats the exact scenario that would make me want to spend my money and make a come back over here and wipe some of those 540ci+ 2800lb door cars we have running mid to low 9's with a few doing high 8's off the track just like I did in the old days with my 340 v the 440's.....but thats a lot of money just to go brkt or index racing, which I'm not into these days.

Cool. That's flying for sure. I bet it will 60 foot better. Lots of room there


The car went 1.22 with old motor, that was 100hp less. The converter is way to tight for this combo, and it showed by only going 1.29 to the 60ft.
