rsracer - It was just a guess, we don't have too many Ford or Chrysler racers on here, plus the BBC/Stang crossbreds are starting to show up pretty often any more.

Welcome Nick - nice Chevelle, you can be a member of the 505 club here lol

Nope, it's on the engine stand waiting for it's new owner to pick it up. I'm in the process of building a new bullet.

If I may ask, whats the best ya ran?, maybe a little info on your combo, and the new bullet as well. I"m also building a new bullet, probably be done in a year or so 565 cubes already have the heads, bmf 350's waiting for a dart block and some other chit. :wink:

Best I got out of it was a 8.77 and 155.87 (separate passes) on a 400 shot. I'm pretty sure that I could have got some more out of it after leaning it out a bit more. I think low 8.60's were doable but ran out of time to play with it. My 505 is a 427 tall deck, .100 over with a Callis dragonslayer crank, Lunati Steel Rods and off the shelf SRP 13.5:1 pistons. It pulled well past 8000 rpm due to a pretty good set of Pro Filer 24 degree heads that Mike Start at CFM ported for me.

New bullet will be one nasty son of a gun, it'll have the same heads on it (with more work done) but other details than that... well I can't let too much out of the bag, I have fellow competitors here :twisted:

:shock: wow, thats haulin, mine is a gen-4, short deck, 100 over eagle crank, and rods j-e pistons 14-1 comp, old brodix bb-2 ported by airflow reasearch, and a 300,-350 shotfogger, went best so far a 890 at 155mph also at seperate times as soon as i stop hurting shit i think their will be a little more in it.Good luck with your new bullet, i understand about the competer thing! :wink:
