Well I headed back to the track again thursday and things finally started coming together in a big way.
I haven't changed much from when I ran Fun Ford Weekend a few weeks ago. So the clutch still slipped a slight amount in 3rd.
I did swap the beat up stock rear suspension to mac style boxed control arms and I hooked up the 2step for a little harder launch.
60' 1.725
330 4.892
1/8 7.431
mph 97.44 (Rev limiter) Hit it right at finish line Clutch slipped twice
60' 1.669 (2 step @ 3K)
330 4.768
1/8 7.295
mph 97.83 (Rev limiter) hit it 50ft before lights.
60' 1.666 (2step @ 3800 with the 125 shot)
330 4.709
1/8 7.195
mph 99.20 (Rev limiter about 70 feet before lights)
It stumbled a little taking off on the last run and still picked up like mad.
The 7.19 run converts to a about 11.20 @ 122+ in the 1/4.
In addition to the all stock longblock I still need to address the stock steel driveshaft with the weight still on it. Along with the rear only turning one tire in the burnout box.
For anybody not familiar with the car yet here's the build info and story behind it. http://www.stinger-performance.com/bolton.html
