Drove the 68` to Quaker City tonight and made 2 runs with the new engine and other repairs. Previous best was 11.99@110 at a faster track.. 1st run 11.60@115mph spun thru low gear..... 2nd lowerd tires to 14lbs.............. 11.490@115mph,1.63-60ft..still slipped some.... Goes thru the traps at 4,800. No roll-bar,, don`t do that again. 68` Satellite,bench seat,column shift,stock converter and trans,3.33 Dana, AND 440 W/B&M 177 Blower.3-lbs boost LOL :goes up with more RPM.... Needs more gear/converter to get max performance at the track,starts to really come on at the 1,000ft. line. Put tools and cooler back in trunk and drove 35miles home. I am happy with that for what it is.........

Kicked out , Heck i ran my Duster for 2 yrs. running 10.9s @ 123+ with no roll bar , Yes "stupid" i know, but i can't believe they let me slide all that time, Of coarse they did like the car & both tracks were borderline outlaw .

Quaker has suddenly gotten "official",they gave me greif in tech for not having a guard on the blower belt. Its a simple 10-rib/serpentine belt,not a cogged 10-71 Top Alcohol FC. I will be back and see how long it takes till they give me an aultimatum. Car got a lot of attention,wife says the blower is really loud and people are curious as to why it sounds "funny".

Quaker City was much more tolerant that I would have been, I wouldn't have let you into the track in the first place Congratulations. How many PSI????? How many cubes????

Cant you change your pulley ratio to get boost sooner and more of it... whats that little blower worth for max pressure

What RPM do u shift at? 4800?
Yes on the 11.49 I shifted at 4,800.
I messed around with shift points last couple years ,really does`nt make amuch differance EXCEPT waiting for high RPMs. anyting over 5,500 ish really slows it down. But that was last year with what turned out to be ZERO fuel pressure!!! Gauge read 5psi,,, bad gauge and pump actually had ZERO which lead to 5 broken cast pistons LOL

Myself,I would increase the blower speed and if you want you can change the gear to the 3.73 but that would be about it.. its your wifes car and I dont know if you would want to spring for a conv.. then start tuning to get the max out of what you have.... JMO

That's an awfully teeny tiny blower. I think you would cringe at what the discharge air temp is now never mind after you dial it up.
Good job none the less. One of my "After I win the lottery" goals is to build a "patina" rod like Dizuster and tour the country to see how many racetracks I can be invited not to return to.

At 3 psi now(max) I dont think it'll go much higher both in psi or temps... Dizuster doesnt inner cool either, I know.. I built the set up for him and he didnt want the inner cooler... and he runs a lot more psi than the OP
