Yeppers......about 100 yards off of C470, tucked in the side of a mountain!

The sixty was okay I guess for having coil overs. I had twenty psi in the Et streets and wad gonna drop them down to maybe 17 or 18 psi, but it was to damn cold that day.......the burn out box was icing up because the winds were so high...errr!!! I think there's an easy 1.6x if I get the tires a little warmer.


You takin your Vette to scsn in Vegas this year?

We'll see....Hopefully more cars show for Hotstreet than usual. I'm no threat to win but I'll stick my toe in & mix it up . I can't run with the guys running Comp.Elim. cars with license plates, Q-16 or C-25 with Sheet alum. intakes, heck I'm just running a cast intake with strickly pump gas only....For that matter, to this point, haven't even tried my trans.brake yet either . No matter, I'm just going for fun & a fun I plan on having . Don't get me wrong I want to run good, just my car is not a dedicated, purpose built Hotstreet car, that's all. If I lived closer to that series it'd be worth it maybe.

I bet your engine(splayed valve head?) still makes good power on pump gas though......what is your compression ratio if you don't mind me asking!? You should jet it up and run some Q16 just for that event.

Patterson is almost done with my lil 358 cuber and should go just over 900hp with a single carb cast intake on Q16......can't wait to drop that in my Nova!

My C/R is 12.96:1. It does O.K., I'm at 900 (Well...maybe a little more ) with the cast single 4 (4150) on pump gas. I'm just strickly a pump gas guy. Can't run anything but. Of coarse customer stuff is different, they want race gas...whatever, they sign the cheques, LOL. Your deal must be in the low to mid 9K Rpm's I'm assuming? My 358 Comp.Elim. mill I do for a Div. 6 guy runs peak power 96-9700 Rpm, goes through the traps 10,200. That deal uses the GM bow-tie splayed valve heads (517's), has to have an O.E. part number, one carb 850 (4150) rules again. Your's should be a killer! Be careful with the Q-16, makes a little power but is very corrosive. I would never run it myself in my own stuff just for that reason...Just sayin' buddy...
