That is an absolutely gorgeous car. I like the true duals - I bet it sounds awesome! I bet he goes over speed bumps very carefully (if at all) - oh that's right - they don't have speed bumps on the 1/4 mile track do they.

That was the first day we had it out at the track. We tested both the SD and HO that day.

The true duals are gone. We have a PYPES cross over muffler on the car now. The exhaust change gained nothing but lost nothing also.

While looking at the pix Jody posted you can see Paul's SD in the back ground. It no longer runs those tires but rather it has bias ply's on her now.

The Vette is an LS6 '71 with 13K miles and all original including 100% original paint. On that day getting her going with 100% factory parts, not even jetting changes, it went 13.1's @ 107 w/3.36 gears.

We have since set the original motor aside, put 4.11's in it and a new exhaust. It now turns 12.0's @ 116 with 1.77 short times. We have a bit more sorting but it is close to done. That is my brothers main PS car.

You guys need to join us we have a lot of fun.

Mark,

Tell Dan to put those AMC's on hold and get the GT-37 back in the shop for the Sept race. We're burning daylight! I want to line up with him in that Javelin!

Your not going to want to hear this as I just hung up with him and we are dynoing a SC/Rambler motor I just finished up next Thursday.

But yesterday was a roller stroker 461 with mellow street hydro roller and roller rockers. It only has 9.4:1 compression and some mildly cleaned up '71 #96 heads. It made 417 hp and 512 tq on pump gas.

Headers added about 10 and 10 to the power.

The GT37 is a must do as you I am sure already know my attitude about your car.

Mark

Lloyd, be careful if you let them both dyno your motor. Here is a pic of Dan and Mark (hiding) dynoing my 350 HO motor. One bank of the motor was pulling much stronger than the other

Default Show us your "Old HO"

Here's MINE! (just a driver,needs paint)
It's pretty basic; M22,Blue custom trim. I've added the Honeycombs & bumper guards.
Other than radial tires,744 cam & Flowmaster American Thunder (transverse muffler) exhaust system,it's original!(oops,almost forgot about the vintage "Ricky Recardo's")
Had it to the track a few years back & it ran 13.9 on the T/A's.
Haven't driven it for about three years but this spring it's comin' out,FOR SURE!

I'll BET you gained some ground clearance & if you ever drive it on the street,that's almost as IMPORTANT as 10th's (you SHOULD get over the speed bumps way faster NOW)

NICE CAR!!!!
