This was literally two hours ago.
A few specs: 496cid 10:1 forged rotating assembly, roller valve train, Brodix Race Rite oval ports, RPM Air Gap Intake, Edelbrock Thunder Series 800cfm carb; 2800 stall on a TH400, 3.31 12-bolt I'm going to 1/8th mile drags Saturday (my first ever run), I'll post up those numbers this weekend. That's not my mohawk. Pulls 2, 6, and 7 (HP & TQ vs MPH). Pull 2 was before tuning. Pull 6 was after tuning running though 3" exhaust and 40-series Flowmasters Pull 7 was after tuning and cut-outs opened right after the header collectors Pull 5 (HP & TQ vs RPM). Run 7 was my final pull, we forgot to graph this pull versus RPM. The graph showing vs rpm was pull 5. |

You let a guy with a mohawk run your car?

Have fun at the strip. Just because I like to guess I am thinking a 7.9 in the 1/8th mile. First time out is a learning experience.

Interesting... My math tells me 500chp.
It should be a blast! |

Factoring in 20% drivetrain loss, I come up with 425/0.8=531chp. Either way, I was a bit disappointed. I'd have made better numbers with the Holley 850 or even a Demon and a Victor Jr intake. But at least I know how to work on the Eddy carb. I'm too busy to take up carburetor tuning these days. Anyway, I made myself feel better by laying some rubber down Imperial Highway on the way back to the office. After all, I don't drive the Dyno printouts to work everyday. Oh, did I mention there's gonna be a Beatles tribute band? |

looks like it should be a nice driver
square port heads would wake it up but it could kill your mid range |

Tune up - check.
Driveshaft safety loop - check. Drag slicks - check. Safety gear - check. Ice chest - check. Tow vehicle, trailer - check, check. ...off to the races! . . . . . . . . . . ...or maybe not. Dammit! We trailered the Chevelle ~40 miles out to Barona Drags this morning for their Salute to the Military Day 1/8th Mile Drags. But we got turned away. I talked to the guy who runs the track a couple times this week. He said not enough participants signed up for the scheduled brackets so the track would be open for test-and-tune. So come on out and run what I brung. Well, the place ended up selling out and we got their too late. What and anticlimactic end to my week. Well, the preparations have been made - I'll get this car on the track soon! Stay tuned. |

That had to be frustrating.
ps - I am changing my quess to 7.5-7.6 in the 1/8th mile and still might be high. |

The track is available for rentals, but I'll just try to get out earlier next time. Since the track operator originally told me there weren't a lot of participants pre-registered, I pretty much lollygagged getting out there. |
