The reason I asked was because in the picture it looked like you were still working on the motor. Do you have any updated pics? Good luck

thats a 7.36 @ 190 by the wallace cal.

just think when you get it dialed in on the spray "BadAss" !

thanks i am going to the track tomorrow the numbers i come up with is a little better then that but we will see tomorrow i have gone at the same track 7.54 at 184 with a 4.83 147 in the 1/8 i am .23 at the 1/8 it was on a 7.24 at 190 but just a guess . the converter is killing it 1200 rpm to tight i am so happy with it that i don't think the manifold is going to superman for a while

---

Wow...What compression, and fuel? Is the block and heads water cooled? Looks like only the heads, just curious.

---

13.5 to 1 c 16 fuel the block and the heads are water cooled thanks

The car runs great guys.....but really, that is what it SHOULD run. A 648 inch HEMI99 motor, should make in the 1350 range fairly easily, even with the heavier nitrous specific parts in it. You put 1350hp in a 2350lb car in good air this time of year and it should go 7.0s in the 195 range and that is exactly where this car is at.

I think what is throwing some off, is the fact that it is unusual for a mopar to be this quick on motor and not many know much about the 99Hemi stuff.

Outstanding runs though guys. To get a new combo sorted that quick is top notch. Now, get a tight converter in that dog and turn the bottle on.....lol.

well, i have a good idea what a '99 should run, but most of us have so little info on these motors that they remain a "mystery engine". arc's combo is even more interesting because its been stroked so much..and using a billet block. I dont know of ANYbody else doing this..at least not on this board. It would be cool if someone like World Prod. would come out with a cheaper(but strong)block for these heads. This is on a 4.9 or 5.0 bore space block..so. 800+ ci is doable with the right bore/stroke combo. Albeit, this still puts the Mopar at a disadvantage to the 5.3 bore space GM monster motors...but it gets us in the show..imho.

Really, the fact that this motor is stroked and has a billet block, really does not matter. What determines the HP something can make, is how much air you pump through it and how much fuel you burn. Now whether this head can support monster cubes, I don't know, because I am not up on the 99 stuff, but again, it's all about air flow. A 500 cube motor, singing at 10,000 rpm, or a 648, just tooling along at 7800rpm, does not matter. Power will be similar, given the air passed. At what point does the head give up is the question. I doubt seriously it will flow enough air to support an 800in motor, plus you really need a 5.200 bore space at those inches and thats a whole nother animal.
