Modular2v said: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?
Na,I think the block should hold up for awhile.
Just keep an eye on things,check for loose bolts and nuts,keep good oil in it and change it when its do.Check out the rockers and pushrods occasionaly,even though your runing a hyd. roller.Check out the balancer and pulleys,if you get any wobbles,fix them.
If it makes you feel better about it I know a guy that raced in FFW spring break shoot out about a year back,and he was runing a 347 Mexican block,and spraying a 400hp shot on a plate.They were having alot of problems else were,but the block has held up.
One thing I think you should consider is going to a single plain intake,you would really pick up some mph and et.
Yeah a victor jr is working its way into the budget! I think the car is going to pick up about 4 tenths once i learn how to drive the thing on the bottlebluevenom867 said:
i change the oil in the car about every 500 miles since i dont do much driving with it

Whats your trans gearing?
You got the 3.35 first gear,or the 2.95?
Either way,better get a cage and some wheelie bars
Did you pull the front tires? how far off the ground. I want to go and get strange struts and shocks for my car and maybe a set of drag springs to see what i could really do with some suspension mods. Oh did you launch on the juice?Modular2v said:yeah i already need a cage. . . (as last friday proved) its the g force trans with the 2.95. . . NAH , no wheelie bars! i like the front end hanging in the sky!!!
Your times and my times are off a bit.

Seems like my car falls flat on its face for the last 1/8 mile. Perhaps it was missing. I tryed another run with juice and my car would not rev past 5500rpm. The next day i took my dizzy apart to find the magnetic pick up and stater full of rust. I sure hope down at sea LvL my car will perform a bit better then at 1700ft. What carb and jets are you using? I have a 750 out of the box holley. I think i maybe need to do some jetting i seem to be running very rich. I think I wiegh 3264 with me in it so Maybe that wieght let your car come around me. That and i think you do make 50 or so more ponies then me.

i pull the tires all motor. . . i did not pull them on the juice! i cant launch on the juice,well i can but, the rev limiter is set at 6200 rpms and the window switch is set to activation range of 3000-6000 rpm with a full throttle switch. so as you can see i really need a 2 step to launch on the sauce. Although i wonder if i launched off the rev limiter, do you think it would bounce back below the 6000 mark activating the nitrous?86bluecobra said:
