.........but that's how I get 18MPH from a ~600 horsie motor.

Sorry to hijack......but is that from the small block in your sig pic? If so, have you raced it? If so, what MPH has it run?




It's the updated flavor of the one in my pic. Slightly out of date pic here: http://www.telusplanet.net/public/zbhansen/temp/DartNewMotorInstalled.JPG
It's making 18MPG pure highway leaned right out, city is a whole different ball game mostly due to excessive sitting parked at red lights. The previous build (the one in the current sig pic with the RPM air-gap ran 12.69@109.5MPH at 3600DA, traction limited, and throttle body restricted). I fired my throttle body and traction issues, only to bend a valve resulting in the rebuild for a few extra ponies while I was at it. The sig pic motor was good for about 450 crank, and the new mill I expect around 600 crank. The new updated mill will make it to the track in mid july, once I get on e chassis dyno (July 7th) to make sure the hihger RPM's are tuned correctly before I break something again.

We now return you to your regularily scheduled forum content.
