I took the car out to the track today just to see what happens when I add some 100 octane and add timing, (my ignition/electrical problem isn't fixed yet).

My first pass I missed 3rd gear but the car felt strong. That pass was a 11.8 @ 117. The next pass made for a new best ET, MPH and 60ft, (on DR's) 11.31 @ 122.2 with a 1.655 short time. Not bad for adding a little timing I guess...lol I ended up with a best MPH of 123.6, but the track was going away and the DR's weren't getting it done anymore.

I have a few changes in the works, so we'll see what happens the next few times at the track. [patriot]

BTW, it was also nice meeting a few new people from the board at the track today. How did you guys do?

Good Runs drew the car hooked good off the line! Very nice for the 18" DR's. Hopefully next time I can make it out there in my car, if I can get some Valve Springs. [burnout]

You are not far off.
[worship] Yes, it is N/A. Very well thought out after LOTS of research.

I used to hear the same crap about my stock bottom end, 120k mile, 5.0 running 11's, flat 12's at 113-115 N/A.

You maybe that fast NA because I know it is possible to build a 450rwhp 347 NA but it must have cost you a lot of $$$, but since you choose not to list your combo...

it doesnt cost as much as u think, its just good parts in a well setup combo, well accept the tune [Razz]

and yes 450rwhp is close, he doesnt need nitrous

maybe u should put the cheater kit on the lincoln [Roll Eyes]

drew: does that 123.6 match or beat mike's best mph with what few parts you are still using of the motor [Frown]

but your car probably has 200lbs on his old hatch, but mike has atleast 150lbs on you [Razz]

I think he was saying he beat Mikes MPH cause I think Mikes was like 123.4 or somewhere in that area. All I got to say that it was pretty sweet standing like 5 feet from the car and seeing a 1.6 on DR's. You watch and wait for the tires to just spin and all they do is hook! like you said Eric, not bad for 18's!

I could be wrong but I thought Mike hit a 125 once with several 124's. Either way both are moving right along.

Mike's best MPH was 124.6 I believe, so he still has me for now. That setup was normally in the 123 range.

The only thing I reused from his 347 was the crank, rods and cam. Everything else was junked.
