For all those loyal fans waiting, praying, whatever...the long awaited results from http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/general-turbo-buick-tech/215780-hiss-woosh-go-boom.html
Today at Mason-Dixon, Hagerstown, MD- mid 80's high humidity with occassional sprinkle delays;
12.502@106.32 1.678 60'
12.592@106.09 1.696 60'
12.297@105.97 1.634 60'
:biggrin:
1.666 60' 7.679@86.42 12.090!!!!@108.61-this was the 2nd run with about an hour cool down.
All runs were with 21-22#s, converter locked, 1psi launch (except the 10psi 12.297 spin out), 24/22 timing. My question is, where's the MPH?
I have stiffer valve springs, plenty of fuel pressure through the top end but at 5K it hits a wall. I think its the combo of the worn out long block and too much back pressure from the little t34, there was a mix-up at Cotton's re. a new Stage5 BB. Unfortunately, operator error nixed all of the days DS recording.
Praise Alky and WB tracking, CK, PTS, Buick:biggrin:
:biggrin: this engine has NEVER been opened-20 year old headgaskets must be seized to the block/heads!!
