my thoughts exactly. . . i have ran the car naturally aspirated for a while now so i think im just going to start out with a 100 shot ! im so nervous. The nitrous journal sounds like a great idea352Ford2 said:My recamend:
1st pass run without the bottle, read plugs check everthing out, etc.
if everything is good run a pass on the lowest setting on the n20 kit (lets say 100 shot, no need to be a hero on the first run), take timing out, and only spray on the first 2 or 3 gears, get out of the gas and spray, kill igntion, coast off the track, pull a plug or 8 and check it.
if everything is good work your way up with spraying in higher gears and more spray, and when you end up at the setting of N2O your are going to stay at then start fine tuning the timing.
I highly recomed getting a nootbook to log everything (jets (carb and n20), air temp, timing, track conditons, etc) even a dig camera pics of plugs to cooralate to your setups.
if you have a probem with your setup it is much better to find it spraying a 50 shot in 1st gear than 200 shot in 4th gear. If you hear anything bad or does't feel right, get out of it, its not worth losing an engine over.
I see guys in the 10's with that MPH!!! Congrats,,she held together!!Modular2v said:well i need a cage lol here is the slip (got kicked off the track)
rt:639
60ft: 1.831 ouch
330:4.975
1/8:7.508
mph:96.86
1000ft:9.661
1/4:11.455 @125.92mph
I ran out of gear crossing the traps lol!!!!! time to get a 28 inch tire
yeah some of my friends said it melted the tires off through 1st and 2nd! one of my good friends has a bad ass 69 mustang with a 460 based 545 solid roller full weight car that went 11.01@ 122 and he hooked . . . . so it must be my tireswillys1 said:Was there alot of wheel spin?
A set of M/T's DR's would do you justice!!Modular2v said:yeah some of my friends said it melted the tires off through 1st and 2nd! one of my good friends has a bad ass 69 mustang with a 460 based 545 solid roller full weight car that went 11.01@ 122 and he hooked . . . . so it must be my tiresmyhome track is also notorious for not having good track prep. . . two 10 second cars have already wrecked due to them not prepping the track. You would think if you saw 4 cars in a row about lose it in THE SAME SPOT , they would stop the action and go check out?
i would rather have slickswillys1 said:A set of M/T's DR's would do you justice!!
:Word: Nice run, the taller slicks should help with your 60ft times as well as your gear problem. 10s are in the bagModular2v said:i would rather have slicks
Modular2v said:yeah i kinda see 10s being possible now. . . . if tens are in the bag, then prob my stock block will be in the bag with it sometime soon
Quick times dont kill blocks, only big HP. For a stock block anything above 450 is pushing it. 500+ means its only a matter of time!Modular2v said:yeah i kinda see 10s being possible now. . . . if tens are in the bag, then prob my stock block will be in the bag with it sometime soon
funny you say that because i just ordered a pair of 28x10.5 m/t et drags!!!! So you think think that stock block will really be ok or were just laughing because u agreed with me?bluevenom867 said:LOL!!
I dont know about that,run that good gas when you go out and keep it off the limiter,it will hold toghter fine.
Go with the 28x10.5 M/T ET DRAG slicksOr if you want to try out the radials, 275/60/15 they are harder to hook off the line,you got to play around with them alot.But they do ride nicer at the big end,maybe a little more mph even.
and approximately how much do you guys think im pushing? i think its somewhere in the 450 area?willys1 said:Quick times dont kill blocks, only big HP. For a stock block anything above 450 is pushing it. 500+ means its only a matter of time!
