NEW F.A.S.T LOW DECK FROM PORTER RACING HEADS

NEW F.A.S.T LOW DECK FROM PORTER RACING HEADS - 04/26/09 03:39 AM

I ran the Super Bee at Maple Grove today with the new power plant put together by Dwayne Porter (fast68plymouth)for the F.A.S.T racing series. Based on a 383 platform for the car, Dwayne built a low deck motor that gave me a new personal best with the car... 12.07 @ 116.37 MPH in near 90 degree heat

. On that run the 60' was 1.938. The new build is very docile at low speeds until you put your foot into it

. Thanks Dwayne for all your efforts on the project. I am sure an 11 second run is in my future just as you planned.

Very impressive!

Can you tell us more about the car/engine/drive train? Is that a "301" intake and what modifications were done to it? What does the car weigh? Any pics?

do you run the larger 440 AVS, at the time I was invoilved with FAST I recall there was some "Grey Area" regarding whether the carb actually required the OEM casting number or if it only needed to look visually correct and functionally identical (IE, you couldn't swap a Vac sec for a Double pumper, etc) the 340/383 AVS is a good 75-100cfm smaller than the 440, it was the first swap (along with the old MP "jetting tips" we used to make way back when

I had a "magic" 69 440 AVS that ran within about .02 of a 750 double pumper on any motor I ran it on...wish I still had that one.

With that MPH it shows you have the power for a 11.70 or there abouts.

I plan on running this car next year hoping to improve on the 60 ft. with the bias ply tires.

Wish me luck.

I guess you could say Mr. Porter is just a tad crafty with those F.A.S.T. combos.

Congrats on 11's in a B-motor B-body!

BTW, I'm kinda' interested in some of how those suspensions manage to hook up on teeny-tiny tires.

If y'all can do it, there may be hope for me keeping the 235/75/$15s on my pickup.

Nice work Harry

Bill , there is a huge difference between those street RADIALS and the repop BIAS PLYs.

Good luck ...

Congratulations Harry.

Must have been thinking about getting back to the pits for a little grappa. I can see the hook going in deeper, Ed you shouldn't have mentioned the tens. Dwayne will be getting a call.

You FAST guys are in for a treat ; Dwayne has my old 6-pack induction system and several intake manifolds to do some serious R&D on his dyno mule. More Power for the FAST racers is coming....stay tuned.

Harry, congrats on your run. Just think, two years ago, at your first race ever, if I didn't introduce you as "one of us", what would you be doing these days? See you at Atco NJ for the SuperCar ShootOut Fall Finale Nov 15th to get your SuperBee " SuperCar Certified "
