have you ever had your engine on a engine dyno if so how much hp dose it make ? i guess my car is just a lil over weight how do you plan to take weight out of yours ?


Yes, it made 819 hp N/A (400 SB), it really liked the spray though picked up big time even with small hits. I am trying to do what I can that is not to expensive. Tubular front K member, Removed Bumper supports (thats what I did today), Cut out spare tire mount, cut out seat belt mounts, My car still has a full interior so there is a lot left to go. I don't however want it to look gutted.
thats quite impressive n/a numbers must be an 18 degree engine you should be able to get #200 out of it that should put you into the high 9's on motor 8)

10 Deg Buick Head. I think it will go mid 9's with a converter and a gear, I still have not decided if I want to run spray yet. I have not driven the car on spray. The car looks wild on a 150 shot!! I believe I have removed 150 lbs over the last 2 1/2 weeks. Motor made just shy of 1300 HP on a 300 shot. :shock: As you can see I need a chassis. 150 shot car went 9.19 @ 148.69 with a 1.4 60'.

I would eventually like to run L/S but I am not ready yet, not enough money or experience. I am running EFI, on motor (dogging it at that 10.50 index). I hope to make 5 races this coming year. I may have a friend drive the car for me and let it fly in the EFI quick 8.
