Went to the track a couple weeks ago and my Catalina ran 6.59 at 108.95 foot braking.Original block and heads 400 stroked to 461 ,75mm turbo,small hyd roller,UCC convertor,Jake's stage 3 th400 kit,9in rearend with a 3.50 gear.Best of all,I can jump in it and drive anywhere.
I don't know how the hell to get these pics upright. |
Nice!!! So what is that in the 1/4? 10.50?
|
Thats pretty close.I think I have the potential to run a high nine.That will be my goal next year

http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...1&d=1606734314 With that 60' time, if it would launch good, it would be a LOT faster. :) Good run and good looking 'land yacht' :) |
Thats running very good on the top end. I think that 6.59@108 will get you in the 10.30s in the 1/4.probably in the 135 mph range.

Wow now that's a sleeper!
|
Very nice! You will definitely be hurting some feelings with that car if you haven't already!
|
awesome job, is that blow thru or efi?
|
Yes, definitely a sleeper! Have you run the car across a scale?

Have you tried a bigger carb?
Hauling. |
I've got enough carb to split the block right down the middle already.

That's hauling the mail, How big are the rear wheels ? The car looks tubbed on that picture.
Definitely my kind of car!!! |
How much boost?
Intercooler? Engine bay pic? Cool car! |

No tubs and a 12in wide 750 series Sander wheel with 275/60 radial pro rubber at 18psi.I put hi-tack on the beads to help keep from slipping. no beadlock and one of my tires moved on the rim about a inch.see the white mark?I believe that 6.59 run was 13-14lbs boost.I'm using a treadstone #1245 innercooler.
That first pic of the engine is a mirror image.still try too figure this damn picture problem i got. |
All that car needs now is a flawless coat of shiny black paint.
Nice work, -Abone. |

How did the wastegate work for you?
Great times so far! |
Paint don't make it any faster,but your right,it needs a nice paint job....the 7K3 heads are original to this car and have stainless valves,10 degree locks,lash caps and Teflon seals.Butler street ported these heads in 98.I had Butler freshen them up and spec springs for the Butler hyd roller turbo cam.my built on this engine is in the boost section a couple years back......Charlie the turbosmart
Hypergate45 has worked flawless.I must have did something right....thanks |
badass.. I have a 70 bonneville 2 door that dreams of being this cool!
|
Don't paint it.. take a hammer and knock some dents in it, put 2 different front wheels on it, ad the quietest mufflers u can find ( I've used 4 in the past) and go make some money.. only ever win by a fender...
Like my old friend Joe B used to say when asked how fast it was.. " just as fast as it needs to be"... |
I like how you think 🤐
|
Cool im glad it worked out for you . Do you have any intentions of turning up the boost?
|
Ultimate goal is a 5 second run.I want to do it on the lowest boost i can.I'm going to optimize several things and then if I have to add a few pounds boost I will.That 6.59 run was only the 10th hit at the track over a three or 4 week period.I changed jets,pvcr's,adjusted both of my brpv's,timing,closed my spark plug gap a little,changed wastegate springs and added Sunoco 110 at higher boost.I started at 7lbs and watched my plugs and AFR and worked my way up.If your on facebook Roscoe Woosley Sr has a video of the 6.59 run on Nov.7th
