A friend of mine has a .040 over 340 .Best time was 11.28 @ 117 w/a 1.55 60ft.It has a 750 pro system carb,340 victor jr.,edelbrock heads (gasket matched,maybe a tad more)1.5 rockers 12:1comp,590 mopar cam installed at 103.5.The trans is a 727 w/a 4800 turbo action conv.,29.5 x 9 hoosier slicks 4.56 gears super stock springs (clamped).The car weighs 3350 w/driver.The ? is ,shouldn`t there b more E.T. here.?Where should we look for a quicker e.t. ,60 ft. and mph?Just seems like there are cars on here w/less doing better.Any help would b appreciated.Thanks in advance

Can you post the whole time slip numbers... could
be as simple as running out of fuel on top end BUT
117 falls in line for the 11.28... how many revs does
he turn

Sounds pretty solid for a 340....

More rear gear,or shorter tire. 904 with 2.74 low gear set and 5500converter. Those are my guesses based on limited input.

Seems like you're running pretty good for that cubic inch and weight of car to me. But yea more info would help

Seems very good for a stock stroke 340 at that weight. Most of the faster smallblocks are strokers. Ron

What kind of info do u need? I can post this evening,he's wanting to get in the 10's w/out pulling the motor. The trans , more head work or cam could b an option

Thats running very well for a stock stroke 340..i would be very happy to be running those numbers with one

ask your friend how much his car weights and a more modern profile camshaft would probably do some good .

combo looks good but I think the 60ft should be lower: 1.48-1.52.

What size carb r u runnig and r your heads done up?

That cam can be improved on a BUNCH.

That seems good for whats in it, maybe max port on heads, solid roller cam if he wants to spend the $$$$$$$$

In comparison i have a 3420# race car/driver,with a 408,11.9 comp.,Eddy heads with clean up in bowls/ports/runners,590 cam straight up,1.5 rockers,super victor intake,750hp carb,TTI headers,timing 38*locked,hughes springs(1111),904 trans TCS 8" converter with 5400 flash,low gear set,4.30 gear and 30X9 hoosier's
Ran a best so far of 10.97 with 1.47 60'
I'd start by seeing if the car is spinning and how the suspension is working.
My suspension is only stock leafs with a added leaf each side.

He was running 4.88 but ran in the high 30's low 40's so it likes the 4.56 I'll get more info as soon as I talk to him

Ok,the timing is 38* ,the 60ft is 1.56 the 1/8 is 7.43 @95.74 and the 1/4 was 11.28 @117.17.....So i guess we`re gonna take some weight out and order a roller.The ? is where would we take some weight from and who would make a decent solid roller?
