Re: 6.291 @ 109.600 mph....
I'm gonna atleast get a time run with it the next time we go I think, if not drive it the entire night.
And my car will never hit those times. Its too heavy. I mean I'd have to either build a big block or buy about a 200 shot of NOS, lol-and neither is going to happen. Now what will happen is a new Jegster chassis (eventually), and that would help get the weight down.
You see, that same engine (excact engine, not similar, but the exact engine, with actually a better intake), with a Powerglide trans. and 5.13 gear (same setup he has) only could pull a 1.46 60' and 4.26 330 time in my car. He had a 1.37 60' and 4.05 330 time, with the exact powertrain (PG and 5.13 gear). So you see, there's atleast a 200 pound weight difference, atleast, probably more. So this little 355 I'm running now is pretty stout, but nobody would think its stout because its slow in my car, but nobody realizes how heavy my car is. My best 60' with this 355 is 1.61 and my best 330 time is 4.75. That would equal out to at best, 7.20 in the 1/8th (I'll find out shortly for sure though) at around 96 or 97 mph. Now that same engine in his car would probably pull mid 1.40 60's, and probably 4.30 330s, and 6.60 1/8ths at around 100 mph.
And too, his car has a cylinder that's not hitting good. One of the heads has a bad port, so when he gets that fixed, he'll pick up atleast a tenth in the 1/8th mile.
