FASTEST stock longblock 109
- Thread starter 2QUICK2B6
- Start date
I believe 10.60 has to be close...... I know Tim Stockwell ran around that back in the day.....with I believe a TA61 turbo.......and 32+psi boost....not sure on the converter......
It was a stock bottom end and 10.29@133.4. Not a stock longblock. Big difference. Touchy question though since most would have at least changed valvesprings and the timing chain for safety reasons. Better question would be stock bottom end and un ported heads with stock cam/head gaskets and fasteners. If someone had a good low mile stock block and cranked it hard for a couple balls out passes with a good converter and mega boost with a HPQ im sure it could make some low 10 sec power for a pass or two.
Actually it was Dick Kereny who did it not Jason. I think Jason has only ran in the mid/upper 9's. His car is more a street car running a 200r4 trans, his car is very very nice. Don Cruz has made 2 passes in the 8's, 8.97 and 8.89 if I'm not mistaking at 3550# with a 70mm turbo.
beat me to it.:biggrin:
When did that happen?
Been several years ago...... don't know all the details but here is the jist of it:
Cal and Dick K. teamed up with Cal's big turbo and a few other parts I think..... and took some weight out of Kerney's car (like un-needed seats and such) and rented a track to be the first "stock block" to go 8's. They did just that. I think there is some info on that on RJC's website.......and seems like it also got a magazine write up..... maybe GMHTP? Anyway......to the best of my knowledge, they were the 1st to go 8's with a stock based 109 block......but make no mistake it wasn't in TSM legal trim.....not that it matters..... an 8 is an 8...... however you run it. I'm sure Cal can chime in and fill in the holes ......
Since then, there have been an 8 or two run in TSM legal trim.

Maybe a stock bottom end with whatever turbo, heads, converter, etc... would be a better question?
I would be curious to know as well what's the fastest stock long block with untouched heads would be. I know of one locally that has gone 11.30. Can't remember the MPH. I think it's a 6262 but not sure.

I started to comment how we had gotten OT..... but felt I could answer (for the most part) cme2fly's question........
IMHO....the OP was asking about unopened longblock......anything else goes.....
To me.....the most impressive stock longblock.....wasn't the quickest.....but did the most with the least......
Ed Brewer many years ago went 11.37 with a stock turbo.....stock (heads never been off) longblock....stock cam......etc......and only a dutt neck intercooler. To me that was big time impressive.

I saw Eds 11.37 pass in person!
The OP questioned about a stock longblock (IE: nonopened engine with the stock camshaft).
Here is a link to Tim Stockwell's experience, Ten Second Budget Turbo Regal Recipe. That car sure was laying down some good numbers.
