138 @ 3100 = 620 on my Moroso dream wheel.


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Mines a 360 1/2 fill and girdle. ( not 340, but obviously similar.)

1/4 mile 141.97mph
1/8 mile 114.66mph

@3750lbs I'm guessing it's in the 850-900hp range.

BUT turbos are notoriously easy on parts, and I only turn it to 6500rpm at the stripe.

Ian would drive around me in the back half...it would still be fun!


It is heavy and I suspect(never weighed)around 3400-3500 with me as even the glass hood is heavy being bolt on...Stock bumpers and full interior also !!

Nos big shot plate was jetted as recommended and I have since changed over to a NX Gemini twin stage 6 I had laying around and haven't sprayed at the track with it yet !!

My goal is to drive it to the local track & back(around 50 miles one way)and go a 5.999 or better in the 1/8th

Billy, I felt like I was doing it right... Back then I was dead hooking radials, weighed about 3400 went 1.34-6 60' a few times then snap. That was the end of 30 spline stuff. I had less power than the OP is claiming. I switched to 35 spline which stayed in the car for my new combo... the axles are stronger than the spool, on Jacks noticed I could roll one tire before the other one would start. This combo is lighter, a lot faster, and depending how aggressive we get it sometimes dead hooks the radial.... would be fun to race the OP, both are NT cars I believe

You ran slicks right? Radials are a much harder shock. On my 28x10.5s nothing ever broke, started tuning radials and wow... parts bills lol

3 most dangerous words? "I have heard."

The X block is better than any stock OEM smallblock. It turned into the R block. If you have one hold onto it.

R.

I like it. I wish they weren't so much heavier than a duster. My sons 70 duster with a cage, frame connectors, stock window glass, stock bumpers, stock interior except for driverside racing seat, heavy fiberglass six pay good, and 160 pound driver weights in at 3100-3150 pounds. We did take the wiper blades and motor off. Caltracks and Mono leaf. Stock K member and front suspension.


1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.42@138.27

Livin and lovin life one day at a time
