Re: Racers.... post your times
500,
Why do I know that name? It seems I've seen it before in the Pontiac family...
Low,
Yes, I think maybe you did miss something. The converter is designed for use WITH nitrous, so 60' and 1/8 mile times are slower "on motor" than they would be had the converter been "loose". The engine and car were initially "designed" for nitrous. By putting a "loose" converter in there, our "on motor" numbers would be more impressive, but ultimately, the car would bne slower by a bunch...
The F/C won't be going to the top to start with. We''ll probably put a T-bucket on it and call it an "altered" for the first year. That way, we can learn the chassis and still go fast, without the obligitory blower and exotic fuel. We'll use the small block from the Camaro for brackets. We're doing a big block for "match racing" (it WILL be alcohol-injected) and a 440 Pontiac for the various Pontiac-only races. We MIGHT even build a Ford, and use the car as a "rolling dyno".
Things are still up in the air a bit, as we only got the car Saturday. We shall see...
Jim
