i kinda miss my ported Eaton days. A ton of fun, a damn fast car and a very simple and reliable combo. That and the amount of guys that would have their jaws on the floor seeing what such a simple setup could accomplish in the 1/4. Good days for sure.

I still think Iron Terps list should be a sticky here as monument to what the Terminators could do with such simple mods on the stock blower. Give the new guys just now buying them a mark to shoot for!

My car "had to have spray" according to most of those without a clue. It was classic. I had fun being quicker and faster than the other local 03/04 cobras who ran twin screws.....they didn't have a clue on how to drive or how to maximize a combo. It was still a lot of fun.

Below is an article I wrote back in the day about breaking into the 10's with the Eaton. Only key ingredient not mentioned here is weather! Can certainly make it a lot easier with some cool air and lower track elevations!

Eaton-Powered Terminator 10 second ET Ingredients:

- While 500 RWHP is enough with other factors taken care of (suspension, etc), hitting the 520 SAE level makes it easier. That means possibly long tubes, single blade throttle bodies, catless midpipes, and aggresive tuning with higher octane fuel.

- Weight reduction is the same as adding horsepower, and is especially important when it's off the front end. I take about 350 lbs out of my car when I'm going for PR's at the track. Figure this is the same as adding 15-20 RWHP. Getting the weight off the front end, (small batteries, removal of front sway bar, skinny setup, tubular K member, etc), will assist tremendously with front to rear weight distribution and can be a big assist in lowering ET.

- Slick/skinny setup......Huge help. Good, high quality setup here will reduce about 80 lbs of weight, and this reduces rotational resistance as well. Skinny's on the front will take 50-53 lbs off the front end and provide less rolling reistance with the narrower front tire on the pavement. Rear slicks will greatly aid in traction and allow higher RPM launches, less breakage, and lower 60' times.

- The Eaton runs hot. Aggressive icing strategies will help big time with keeping the blower cool and allowing maximal performance through the back half of the run. Otherwise, more than likely, significant timing can be pulled with a resultant loss of power.

These are the 4 main tangible factors that contribute most to achieving a 10 second timeslip with an Eaton powered Terminator. An aggressive driving approach, which includes appropriate pre stage burnouts, high RPM launches (5,500+), and aggressive shifting, can shave up to .50 off 1/4 mile ET. But, there are folks that are more conservative that have hit 10's without these techniques, although this is very rare.

Iron I copied your icing strategies years ago and they served me very well. Those big ol cups of frozen water made a hell of a difference tied in with my regular ice downs. Lol you could ask any of my track buddies how serious I was about icing at the track with the ported HEATON!

I really miss my unported Eaton Combo, was so easy on maintenance and super reliable. I too have switched over to the twin screw and had nothing but head aches ever since, between fuel and tuning issues.
I also always got the "you must be spraying that thing, or who's port are you running?". The look on peoples faces when i told them it was unported and no spray was priceless. I had one guy look my car over top to bottom for about 30 minutes trying to find a bottle or lines.
The biggest reason my car ran the numbers it did, was reading this forum and seeing what combos worked and what didn't work.


p.s. the quickest my car went unported was 10.81@127 1.44 60 ft, in -1200 DA, got to love cool fall nights, @ 3580 lbs with me in the car. The weather plays a huge role in turning fast times, my et thats on the list was in -800 DA @ 3605 lbs iirc.
