Hey Marty. Had the car out this weekend with the converter you guys built, and the new Hutch built t-400. Rolled it out of the trailer 1.59 60' and 11.243 @ 119. WAAAAAAAAAY better than the 12.5 I was running a few weeks ago. after 3 similar runs all 119 mph. one 11.4... spun got greedy on the 2step, turned it back down to 4000rpm and ran a back up 11.228 on motor. I got a warning for no cage... so i opened the bottle with 100hp jets in the kit. pretty fat tune up and conservative ramps on the proressive, I clicked off a 10.88@122.3mph with a 1.533 60'.... pretty sure i lited the drivers tire, just waiting on a buddies video to tell for sure, but had a great day at the track, and the converter works great on the street putting around as well Great Job, and I recomend you guys highly. Thanks again Marty

Thanks Justin , glad to hear you like it. Sounds like the car is running great. keep me posted as you keep putting the juice to it. (better get a role cage)

Will do Marty. A roll cage and some adjustable coil overs for the rear shocks are next on the to do list.

Hello Marty, sorry its been so long. Just a lil update. I ditched the plate system I had for a IS fogger, it has the converter working perfect now. My best N/A run is 10.98. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOZGqNrunFw&feature=plcp and my best run on the bottle, single fogger 9.49.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzx6NhvZAAM&feature=plcp I'm going to be doing a lil head and cam upgrade this winter. See if it picks up much more power... If so I'll be consulting you. Thanks again for a bullet proof converter that drives great on the street and kicks ass on the track.

WOW really good lookin street rod! next thing you will need is some data, you need something on the car that records at least engine rpm going down the track, then we can really dial it in!

Well good thing I just wired in a MSD 7531 a couple days ago when my old digital 7 died! I'm just learning to navagate around the program, I have the rev limits set up and one timing step that just yanks the timimg as long as the nitrous is on. No fancy curves or per gear timing changes. I'm heading down the Edmonton weather permiting Sept 7th. I'll save the log files and see what you think. Thanks Marty

Sorry No data To report. I towed the car 10 hours to get only 1 pass in... The track kept getting oiled down by garbage, and with nitro Harley drags the next day, the staff had to shut it down to get a proper clean up done. The new AFCO double adjustables or going in today and I'm aiming for Oct 6th to get back to the track.

Nice pass on the bottle!!!! Bet it felt good.

Sure did. When I was setting my valve last before last weekends race I found the engine builder had 12 or the 16 rockeres mixed up with 1.6s and 1.5s all over the place. I have the 1.6s on the intake now and 1.5 on exh. one the one pass i did run last weekend i spun lots.. street e.ts on.... and still managed a 122mph witch is a new best on motor. Even idles alot smoother! Instrested to see what it picks up on the bottle. I think with the rockers mixed up the 250 hit went 9.55 and 300 hit was 9.49.... so not much of a gain there... Weather permitting will get some new vids up in early October. The new Afco shocks are installed as well...
