Congrats on your 8 pass what does a 36 jet
equal to in HP (I know nothing about spray)





It's 350 hp. I am dissappointed that it took so much juice to do this, but it is normal ( up here), and even less then some others spray?

Congrats on the 8 second pass Dave! It was cool to see it in person! Your car was hauling the mail!

I am pretty happy with my 10.59! Not bad for a 4050 lbs car at 7600 DA! I went out in the second round. No traction. It really spun them hard at the hit!

Also, Thank You for the valve cover gaskets! It's always nice to pit next to someone who shares.




I am glad we pitted together, your car runs great, especially for a real street car, and the weight.
I forgot to mention that this was at our local " Mopar Meet" and the weather was great, with high 70's.

Dave, keep up the good work. it sounds like there's plenty left in it.




Thanks Dan, for everything! I know there's an .80 in it, maybe a .70? At sea level that puts me below my chassis cert. Thanks everyone.

Congrats Dave! I knew you'd hit an 8 soon. A 350 shot with the engine breaking up in each gear sounds dangerous though. But I know squat about juice.

I agree. The FAST air/fuel meter, was acting up, and when logging, would read 9.6 each run? We leaned it out twice, and ran better. Next time out, hopefully we can get it cleaner.

Thats awsome, what track??? altitude is crazy...

vid link?????

Im trying to tune for Bandimere, I live at 8400ft, gonna try 400hp in two stages on the X block motor.

It seems NA up here will take 20-25 percent from a N/A motor......I know my cranking comp is 40 pounds less at 8400 ft vs 1300 ft. on the same motor so it seems many wh9o spray use alot here????

Yea that thing would be spooky crazy at sea level

This was at Bandimere yesterday for the "Mopars at Thunder Mountain" show.
Good luck with yours!

When I lived there, I have seen DA @ nearly 10,000 ft. mid summer, on some weather stations.

You can have it..

Most beautiful track in the country though..
