Or this one
Engine first start
On Thursday September 14th I'm going to attempt to bring the heart to life on my car. It will not be for a break in, maybe set idle/ timing and a few throttle cracks to get my blood pressure up What do i have to know before i go doing such a thing? Shit, if anyone wants to join for the...phantombullet.net
Well here's another pile of shit to keep you busy
Tune in on Sunday for....
.....the Shit Show! Will provide a more precise time closer to the event.:chuckle: Gonna have 89 Fox doing the heavy work... I am gonna do the measuring and mathing.... Mark D will be hosting the event and providing event coverage as the SBF gets a check up!💪phantombullet.net
Yes. All of those. I'll go take a nap and read them(used) all (again) later. Big Baby.Or this one
The part where I give up
Should have known. Oil leak. Leaking between bellhousing and scatter shield. Id guess rear main seal? It's not trans fluid. I can't take much more of this shit edit to say it's not leaking around rear of intakephantombullet.net
I believe you. My car has good mph for the ET, simply because I have bad ET for my mph!All lines up with wallace dead on. I could be wrong on mph but I'm pretty sure he ran 9.36 at 143 1st run off the trailer. It's a ford c4 auto also
What's the engine combo on the 8.90 deal ? NA ?I believe you. My car has good mph for the ET, simply because I have bad ET for my mph!
I only bracket race, and for the most part I slow it down for 10.00 Index Racing, so ET does not matter to me. Makes being lazy easier!
I used to go 8.90 @ 156. That's a lot of MPH for the ET.
A little blue bottle next to me was the key.What's the engine combo on the 8.90 deal ? NA ?
I don't think I'll ever see 8's, lol
Ah, viagraA little blue bottle next to me was the key.![]()
I don't need no blue pills, been almost 3 months since wifes hysterectomy, sitting here like a grenade with the pin pulled trying to avoid even the slightest bump.....little blue pills for the driver, little blue bottle for the car....it's gonna be a good night!!
1.25 short and 143 mph with a 9.32 tells me that car is all in by the 330Mike, i was off a little, tim ran 9.32 @ 143 with a 1.25 60'
I think he did say it was revving higher than he wanted crossing the line1.25 short and 143 mph with a 9.32 tells me that car is all in by the 330
One day I decided to see how the engine felt at higher rpm than I wanted to cross the traps at, and I like speed....... So I didn't lift at the 1/4 and kept in it to 8800. The engine just kept pulling! And the track was getting too damn short! We had a semi-short shutdown at my home track back then, E-Town. It is one of the reasons Scott Kalitta died there as well as 1/4 mile Fuel Racing. I think I tried to figure out the mph but I forget what it came out to. Doesn't matter, on nitrous that poor little engine was at 8200 going 156.I think he did say it was revving higher than he wanted crossing the line
