passes look good except that you porpoise a lot. How big of a shot are you using? Looks like a glide? What kind of 60s?

small shot still...cheater plate with 92 jets....going to step the motor program up a bunch...im on a stock 400 block and 11 to 1...Im going to a little m block and 427 inches at 14 to 1 and a pro race fogger.....This combo was to get the car going and try and get the car sorted out.....

Ya im elky406...Um my goals with this combo after getting shit sorted out was 9s n/a 8s bottle....
new motor program i would love to see a 9.5 and then the bottle to take another second off....I would love to see 145 n/a and 155 or so on the bottle....
Im having a hell of a time getting the car to 60ft.best n/a 60ft has been a 1.45.That sucks shit my small tire all motor small block mopar went 1.39.
Some of it is the really tall tire with the glide the other is the suspension.....I need some help with it being that this is the first big tire ladder bare car i have ever had.

Yah I'd expect high 1.2s from your combo. The 60' is my problem too but hell I'm a small motor import on stock IRS so that's to be expected. Can't wait to see how your car does when finished.

i would be happy with low 1.40s to high 1.30s on the motor and 1.20s on the bottle....
