Krom, get the wires..... they are a good omen, you'll be in the 10's.
They left this morning, 9:30am. I bet he has em by Friday.

Thanks again for the congrats!
Turbo, yes I run AL GN1 heads.
That pass was a 1.42 60ft. The bottom end on my motor is all forged/billet, no girdle. Rear end is mosers and the driveshaft is a new AL inland 4". I broke my 3.5" AL driveshaft at the WCN's, if the 4" fails it's back to steel for me!

How did you pull that 1.42 60ft?? was that off the foot brake (what psi) or off a trans brake (what psi).. whats your set up, H&R bar? air bags? upper and lowers?.. thanks, and congrads on your 9 sec slip..
To bad I missed you Neal, unfortunately I spent most of that weekend running around looking for a driveshaft. I was impressed to hear you drove your car from California, raced and drove back home.
There really is nothing special about my suspension or launch. HR bar, UMI uppers, no-name tubular lowers that I got for free, no airbags. I usually leave off the transbrake around 10PSI.
Hey Russ, I'll be expecting my commission check any day now. :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

TQ is the key to any combo
My TQ is an Art Carr N stall that has been reworked. I had the stall raised a bit. I can now spool a pro-tree no problem.
Congrats on your 9 sec pass. Dan, do you have any info to post about your converter efficiency? Im curious as i have 2 AC converters i am sending back for a re-stall/tightening. Im losing too much up top.

Love my 70 p-trim. Spools like mad.
Hey Dan, Which exhaust housing are you using? I just put a .85 precision on replaced a .63 precision, and I can no longer say "spools like mad" But it does seem to pull harder once the boost comes in.
Scott, I'm running the .63 housing.
I do have a GTQ that has a .85 housing. It did OK with my combo. I have a video of how it spooled if you want to see. Never got the boost above 19PSI with that turbo, I should try it again.
Sorry, I really don't have much data on my converter efficiency. I can say the RPM/MPH though the traps was similar before/after the rework.

OK, so out of curiosity about converters, and if you don't mind sharing the info.......what kind of rpm thru the traps ? What size tires ? Are you shifting into OD ? What was involved in the "rework" and was it done by Art ?
I only ask because I had an A/C "N" stall and it was way too loose....even after tightening it....it was still not right for me. I am currently trying to get as much info about converters as I can.
Thanks,
Clayton
clayton, he has a th 400 trans.
