SignUp Now!Well I don't know about that, but it's sure close to the track record at my track. 1/8. Set by a Volkswagen powered dragster.![]()
Sure would be nice if you could bring your machine over here so the track record could be held by a Buick!
Here is a couple pics of mine with a roots style on it. This is a 8-71 and Im seriously searching for a 14-71 superman pro-mod blower.Mike

Nice! Any vids?
Thanks for the kind words guys. 4.35 dial in was for the carera shot, it has been a 4.25 @ 163 , but that was one day long long ago!! I havent been able to get back to that but Im getting closer. Last time out this year which was when I took those pics it went 4.52 @ 152 with 35 degrees timing and the next (last) run increased the timing to 37 degrees and went 4.42 @ 156.
It was set up with 6.74 to compression and has seen over 50# of boost. It still wants a lot more timing. I know that most of you are saying that rediculass on the timing thing!! I quit trying to make it run like a turbo car with little timing - it wont work!!
Im in the 2008 BPG video at the end and I wish I wasnt!! That was the first time with this new combo and had 20 degrees timing in it!! Needless to say it was a very embarassing weekend for me as it wouldnt run for shoot!!
Still looking to go 3.99 but Im not even close right now!! Mike![]()

I see you're still running alcohol. I would think you could run quite a bit more boost with that static CR your using. Or are you planning to throw some nitro into the mix?
No nitro for me!! The 8-71 I have on it is now at 44% overdriven to get the 50+ boost. That combo is yielding 90 degree intake temps at starting line and 180 at 660'. Looking at going with the 14-71 superman blower and slowing it down to 15 to 20%. Pro-mod guys are seeing 135-145 degrees at 1260'. It takes approx 400 HP to turn this blower at 44% and the return has not been there!!
Also going to go with shorter stroke and BIG aluminum rods for this next year.
I dont expect it run any better than it has ,but Im done testing!! I wanna race!! Planning to run top dragster in division 3 and there is a Jegs superquick series around here that would like to run, it has a 4.50 minimum dial-in and you have to qualify above 4.50. Mike![]()
