My best race speed is 127.08 in the 1/4 mile in my small block camaro... my best time is 10.85 with a trap speed of 75mph... on fire through the lights... carried the front wheels 1/2 way down the track on that pass and split the trans line dumping fluid on the headers... flame on...

Like I said, you can't learn anything in a quarter mile!

Goran thinks the intercooler ought to bring down EGTs so I'll try that at the next meet, which I was going to do anyhow. He was happy but not surprised at our (Mutt and my) improvement.

VSTech - want to ride along for the next meet? Bet you'll get hooked - it's great fun. (Probably shouldn't invite you 'till I check with my usual pit rat who couldn't make it this time). Still, there's often room in the right front seat of Truck (the Dodge). You'll have to share a too-warm room with me if you want free lodging but they always give me a double room.

We adjusted the lifters and the left valve cover gasket got twisted in the rear. By the time I crossed the quarter mile mark the car looked like it was dying.

I only lost a quart of oil but it appeared to all have ended up on the JC Penny headers I ran (Appliance). That was the only manufacture of headers for the 66-67 Chevy II.

That's pretty damn fast! The new 2020 C8 does the 1/4 mile just a hair better, right out of the box.
2.6 sec. 0-60 mph is the best time I've seen. Incredible!!!

Regards 5,280 ft? The new Ford GT 6 cyl. presses 200 mph. Another incredible car, right out of the box!
