TA-49, 60lb inj, ported irons, stock location stretch I.C. 11.49@117 Will probably go a little faster. First run and got thrown off the track for no roll bar.

What boost level to get that? Nice job. Post up your combo. I'm hoping to click off a 12 next summer and want to see how I'm stacking up to ya... :biggrin:

Why not a GT6131,52, ect? TA49 is "old technology".
They do still work great though. Cudo's mikestertwo!

I just installed a GT6131 dbb on the car. This thing spools like crazy Haven't had it to the track yet. Next year after the rains stop (and before my son comes up and takes the car back home :frown: ). I will have to take it to another track (Woodburn). Combo was: TA-49, EDGE 10" L/U 3000 stall converter, 212/212 roller cam, ported iron heads, BG stretch stock location I.C., Motron 60#inj., THDP, 3.42 posi rear, 255/60 MT street ET's, TT chip, 20lbs. boost, transmission 200r4 built by me with billet parts from Bruce (PTS).

I have the standard bearing 6131 and IT spools like nuts. I can't imagine a dbb. I will when the dbb6776 gets in.:biggrin:

I just went 12.041@110 on the stock turbo last Saturday at Cecil County Dragway in Rising Sun, MD. Planning on upgrading to either a TA-49, TE-44; or something bigger in the near future. That 12.041 was backed up with a 12.050@109 with a hurt trans. Ported stock turbo, IC, & plenum w/PP, 009s w/TT alchy chip; with a THDP through the Hooker exhaust. Boost was ~28psi or so...

Time for a turbo and convertor...:biggrin:
