Warning Turbo V-8 Videos 8.0s 175

[Dusty Bradford]

We have not tried the 3.60s yet, we have a set of 3.70s in the car now. In talking with Chris last night the car was turning about 8200rpm on the 175passes. If I was going from scratch I would probably do a 3.5 or 3.4.

8200 I think I'll go with 3.40!! It still has the 3.73 that came in the 9 inch but it will be at least a year before I get in the mood to push it past the 160 range. I run 1/8 mile 90% of the time anyway.

Where's john? I'll venture a guess here and say 1150 in that car, probably had it turned up to 15 lbs of boost....

Yeah, I imagine it still has a lot of room on the tune. Probably more than the current chassis can handle.

Dusty,

We have the most loose stator in the converter right now,
we can also shim it tighter.

That car hooks so hard it almost seems unreal!
That car is awsome!
