So I took the car out to the local dragstrip for the Friday night street legal event. I just wanted to try her out after doing all my motor mods, however as you may or may not know I switched back to the 2.80 gears since my 3.40's were toast (And I have a 9" with 3.50's sitting and waiting).
Anyways, my best time of the night was a lame 15.38@94mph with a 2.45 60ft time (One tire fire spin was an issue off the line). At 5500 RPM my tach would go weird and I would hear a big pop (I think it's a timing/coil issue). I did not even use third gear by the time I crossed the line.
My old best time and mph was 15.39@90mph with the stock heads, old cam, offy intake, holley 600 and 3.40 gears.
At least I picked up some mph, with new gears 3rd gear might actually be useful and some much better times might be attainable.
