I made it out Sunday to get some runs in. The change from the previous best of 11.44 @ 116 was the cobra jet intake, scj mono blade throttle body, Kooks Super Street headers and a Spec stage 2 clutch. I did not get around to any weight reduction mods yet. The car with me in it weighed 3650# on the scale at the track. It had just under a half a tank of gas.
The trans still did not want to shift above 7200 on the 1-2. So I power shifted the 1-2 at 7,000 and the 2-3 at 7,700. With the shifting issues I didn't power shift the 3-4 so slow shifted at 7,700. The car picked up 3 mph over the stock intake. I think it has another couple tenths in it once I get it dialed in as is. If I can figure out the trans I see it picking up even more. I really do not want to spend the money on a Magnun XL. lol
I was mainly pleased that I was able to get the 60' times back in the 1.54-1,55 range on a 'ok' prepped track with the CJ intake. That was at a 6,600 rpm launch. On a good prep track and higher rpm launch I think it will go 1.52-1.53 as it sits. Then hopefully I can remove some weight. I may switch to a 3.90 gear as it would be more ideal for this intake. Sadly we only have tracks open around us for another week or so. Depending on the weather. I hope I can get back out testing at least one or two times yet.
