My tranny guy is trying to get me to go ATI. I think there may be something to that. I borrowed an 8" converter that 60 ft'd much better than the custom pieces I had. Always felt that if I had a smaller tire and could control wheelspeed I could actually 60 ft better. My 32X14.5 tires are much slower than the 31X10.5 tires.
Your 60 ft is exactly .1 better than my best with the W8 motor I had. That alone would have brought my ET into the 5.5's. Knew where I was coming up short just did not know what to do about it. LOL. My dyno numbers started at 6,900. We thought peak torque was at 7,100 going by the dyno sheet. Where is your peak torque at if you don't mind telling? Your MPH is proving the power you are making.

I think mine could be even quicker on a 29.5 X 10.5. I didn't dyno anything so I'm not sure where it makes peak torque, but I suspect it is in the 6800 rpm range.
Lots of track time to chip away at the 60'.

How much do you think the car would pickup with a toilet and Alky? I ask because I know a guy with smallblock who saw about 2.5 tenths difference going from race gas to the injected Alky swap. This was a car that went mid 9's before the swap, not as fast as yours but a very nice gain none the less. 450ish inch Indy head motor, btw
Not sure it would pick up at all in great air. Would probably be .15 or so quicker in the heat of Summer though.

It's on C14. Thought about giving the Q16 another shot. Everyone but me has made more power with it.

I finally got to see this beast run. It's stupid fast! I love seeing the folks come around and their jaws drop when they see the SB in between the fenders. Priceless.

Ours made about 10 more over C-14 on the dyno with C-25.
We're pour just a tick under 14-1 and only spun it to 8500, which was 300 past peak.

This engine started at 16.2:1, but is now closer to 14:1 after Brett fixed the poor chamber work by the previous builder and having to sink the valves some to fix the crappy valve job from the previous builder.
I have never run C25...I believe peak HP on mine to be around 8100.

I just checked my notes from the dyno. C-25 was worth 12 numbers over C-14, with a 894hp peak @8200.
Might wanna give it a shot....

Do you have any jetting notes between the two fuels on the dyno?
