Last weekend my little brother and I loaded up my car and put a couple passes on it and I'm pretty excited. I leaned the carbs out one size down and it responded very well to that. It went an 11.08 @ 122mph. Lost a tenth on the 60' from the worn out drag radials (I think). Notice a slight miss in it in the video I took but everything checks out fine. I want to put a wideband on it to get it closer. https://youtu.be/WXhnIgvtWbY

Good for you

What's the combo, and where did you run ?

528 hemi. Small solid roller. Indy modman with 2 750 eddy's. 2 1/8 tti headers with full 3" exhaust. 727 with 9" ultimate 4500 converter. Strange 60 with 4.10s and running a 275/60-15 Mickey Thompson radial on that pass. We were at Keystone Raceway in western PA.

Sounds like that should run 10's easy enough.

That was my goal but I haven't made it quite yet. I think if I had new tires, it would of made it. I race it in full street trim.

Keep chipping away at it, that's a great running car. I love the the E-body's .. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks guys. It's actually fast enough for me but I'm this close so why stop? LOL. I don't get to the track enough to keep after it though.

congrats. I think a wideband and some more dialing on those carbs will get you in the 10's. How did the plugs look?

Plugs look clean. I may just try dropping the secondary jets down one more size and try it. I'm not sure if it's smart to drop 3 sizes smaller on the secondary circuit than what the primary is. So I think I'll wait for a wideband.

Get the wideband first. Thumper Carbs(Dom) can help you with those carbs.

I think Dom will tell me to throw them in the trash . I run them because I want the stock look on my car.

i'v seen twin 500's run surprisingly well before. Don't know much about those tuning wise myself. would hurt to ask thou. Get a wideband and see whats really going on.

Twin 750 carbs will take some work. Edelbrock sells the 500 carb with a dual quad calibration. I've used those carbs before and they work really well right out of the box. Dual 750 carbs are going to be way too rich out of the box so you'll need to pull a lot of jet out of them.

If you didn't have any carbs I'd recommend the dual 500's for that engine but since you already have the 750 carbs then you'll just have to rework them. You don't need 1500 cfm on a street engine even if it is 528 cubic inches. Sounds like you're making around 600 hp given your mph so you are probably using 800 cfm or so at wide open throttle.

Thank you for the advice Andy

Keep pluggin' away.
I'm in the same boat
Those 11.0's are fun and so close!!

Nice car and nice hemi, but really as mentioned you should find 10-s semi easily with that motor, even with 3.55 gears or so.

Great job for and old man's car and one of those Hemi turds. Great job Barry and congratulations. You still have a few more weeks to get after it

if I had ported heads and more camshaft I'm sure it would be no problem. I'm sure I could make more power with a single 4 barrel too. But I'm working with what I have now. The car drives and sounds like a stone stock 340 and the build was in mind with junk pump gas we have and not breaking valve train. It works for me

My untouched bone stock hemi car ran a 13.96, like three weeks ago. First time out in years, if not sold it will be that long till next time.

Kinda like a 340.

So really, your doing ok.
