No worries from me.

Guys should all get slicks and line up in lanes 1&2.

3 hours for 2 passes...

Staging lanes were backed into the pit area.

Figured I make some passes before track day.

They were only running the 1/8 at first. It was very windy.

My second and last run was the 1/4 and I didnt break anything.

I did my homework and studied up on E85. That's all I've been running the past 2 years.

General school of thought is out when it comes to E85.

If there was a ptv issue it would even hit a dished piston.

Why did you build it as a 12:1 motor?

To make more hp..

i hope that was a low boost setting.

It was 12psi and the car ran 10.30's in the 130's at this setting.

I short shifted from 1st to 2nd without getting in to boost until it was in 2nd. It broke the 28" M&H drag radials lose at 5500rpm and I then shifted to 3rd. You cant see wheel spin by watching the speedometer. I have a th400 transmission and I set the speedometer to work off the front passenger abs ring. You can see the rpms jump at the 6 sec mark when it spun and thats when I hit 3rd.

At the track I shift at 7200rpm.

I got it all back together and this was how I broke it in yesterday.

The Edelbrock intake before and after.

I ran into a snag assembling the shortblock. I found a broken off headbolt in the block. I bought a time sert headbolt repair kit and fixed it. I then broke a arp headstud down in the block on the other side. I drilled it out and didnt get the insert installed right and it pulled right out when I torqued it to 90lbs. I the drilled and tapped the hole for 1/2 thread size.

I bought a piece of 1/2 all thread and cut off a section the length of the threads on a arp headstud. I then tapped it for the 11mm 1.5 thread size and inserted it in he block and it held.

I've built a .030 teksid shortblock with manley flatop pistons, cobra crankshaft and manley h-beam rods. The crank and rods are the same ones I've ran since 05. I have a fresh set of ported PI heads with all new valves, valve seals, valve guides and high load valve springs.

I'm running the same custom cams that are 230/230 .560/.560 115lsa. I also had my edelbrock intake ported.

Kool looking friend.

Meth is great as long as its spraying):

E85=more hp... I run it with 80lb injectors. With E85 you dont have to worry about how much boost you running..

Do you have ported heads. The heads I've been running the past 3 years are available right now. I'm building a new engine and using my "stock" heads again.

I have a 08 4 door Ram with the Hemi. I'm also a ford guy, but love my Ram.

It was really windy there today.

The first two passes were ran with 12psi and the others were 18psi. The 60' sensor wasnt working for any of the runs. I only know I was spinning badly off the line and through first. I had to short shift to 2nd ever pass.
