Yeah, figured. 

Still might want to check the pump though, as you probably used what Dwayne has with the dyno

500" NA, Eddy head, pump gas, exhaust manifold with 2 1/2 exhaust with tailpipes
4150 lbs with driver, 3.23 gear, stock converter
11.68 @ 120.2 mph

Russ, i did check the pump when installed....it pumped 1 gallon in 15sec so it works fine while just sitting there but i'm not sure what it's doing downtrack with g-forces pushing the fuel backwards and the pump having to draw fuel up 4ft to the inlet side. I've got a mechanical guage that i can rig up temporarily.  :scratchchin:

Have you run it with a set of slicks yet ? I'd bet you'd drop a 3-5 tenths .   Very wicked car you've got any video ?
MOPAR OR NO CAR !!

I may have missed it but it has been a bit since you posted anything on the pigs progress.


Any plans on making it a dedicated strip car or are you still going to scare the locals on Saturday night?

I have used a ball valve from the hardware store and checked the flow at a certain psi.I use a camera on my guages to help keep track and check things so if you try that it may help.

Finally took my car to the track, after 1+ years from installing the new stall converter recommended from Ron it ran great.
I made 4 passes, 1st pass was 11.35 @ 119.01, 60 ft 1.6601 made a few small changes in between all passes with a 45 min cool down.
My final pass 11.21 @ 118.97, 60 ft 1.53  The new converter shaved off 2/10 of a sec.  :2thumbs:

So you dropped .2 tenths off your best time but your MPH is 4 slower than the best you have listed in your sig......any idea why that is? :shruggy:
