i think it will happen in florida soon, there is a hot bed of fast radial cars down there,i also like how the nos cars are not too far behind the turbo/procharged,kinda reminds me of the old promod blown/nitrous rivalries.

i have reused cometics and felpro's plenty of times,just brakeclean them off,and put them back on, when they lose thier elastisicty,i replace them.another words ther are like a spring, and if i reuse them 3-4 times over,i may mic them the last 3-4 times i re-use them,fwiw.

Well the Aeromotive Pump I got has an adjustable bypass -8 line to the cell that's why I was wondering about the return line from the carb. As far as the Nitrous side after the reg. I have a -4 line in a tee fitting just before the solenoid with an .020 jet in it to bleed off the pressure to keep i...

hey ytnova, unless i misread your post, why would you need a return off the carb?i can see for nitrous, and you would run it off the fuel reg., but why would you need it for the motor side.usually 500-gpm pumps[bg, magnaflow] have a return off the pump that dumps in the fuel cell, or tank.at least t...

Artis is the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know, Turbo's have gone faster. Here in the DFW area we have David Wolfe of Wolfe Racecraft, and Grant McCrary with his twin turbo stang. I think David has the D/R mph record and I know Grant has gone a 4.29 (1/8) on 10.5 tires. You have to think that Artis ...

if it were me i would just run 1-500gph type pump and y-it off to your nos side, and reg. it down to the sols. i would also recommend running a high amp relay,on a 500-gph pump because of the amp draw,just my 02.

about 10-or so years ago i had the same combo in my chevelle, only my track-1's were ported, had 17/8 tube headers and a 750-no dominator my car weighed 3450 and it ran a best of 10.60 figured it was makin all of 600-625 hp,fwiw.

yes,thanks for your help too by the way when you can pm me your # i wan't to talk to ya.

thanks marty, its a t-400, i measure slip with a formula off of tci site, i can see the fall back rpm off of my playback tach everthing else aside i could not be more happy with my conv. and tranny just wasn't sure of slip and fallbackrpm.

thanks, i am glad i did not change gears, its pullin plenty rpm's now,don't want to take it any higher,still running a t-400 though and no plans to change....its funny with this new eng. combo,its almost as fast as my old 505 on a 300 hit of spray...and i aint changing pistons all the time.....congr...

does anybody know what the % of slip is a good number?i have 8% now but the car works good, also it falls back 1000-rpm on the shift does this sound about right?

well here is a little update, i'm kinda glad i didn't change the gears, as of this past sat. i hit a personal best,908 @ 148, and the rpm through the traps was 7500, i think the cool fall air up here in the northeast had something to do with it. right now the rpms are up a little off the brake it fl...

i run the aerospace front disc brake kit, everything cost about 600-bucks if i remember right, but took a lot of weight off the front from the stock gm stuff.i guess when your at this level you need all the weight savings you can get,i know the stuff aint cheap as i'm probably going to go to lightwe...

looks good, now lighten it up even more with some liteweight front discs/rotors,probably save up to 30-lbs over those stockers!

gotta love those chevy moters, run good till the end.
