This isn't even the billet block engine yet is it?!?!
No sir, this motor is out of my pull truck. No sense in beating up the "A" motor testing and dialing in the suspension.
That's what we are hoping for. I think we were passed the "stock cam" ability's, and this will give us the RPM needed to keep things spinning. Leaving the line at 3300, and shifting at 4200 happened way to fast.
It's pretty light, one guy can move it around easy. Hasn't been on the scales yet, but pretty sure it's under 2800.
Got a chance to weigh her at the track last week. It's actually quite a bit heavier then we orig thought at 3460lbs.

No the fenders, doors, bumper and hood are glass. The side windows are lexan, and trunk lid is gutted. Guess it's time to ditch the dash, carpet, second seat, old A/W setup, door panels and all the other dead weight haha..
We almost got a full pass in... 9.5 @ 130mph 1.43 60' in the simi finals. Ended up killing first gear on Friday testing. Michael Pliska made a very generous offer for us to use his Pro Stock XP5 Trans, which happens to be the same. We were able to bump a green in qualifying, then swap transmissions before eliminations. Crazy busy day Coddens, Fletes and myself had our kids running JR Dragsters as well. Huge thanks out to Randy and NHRDA for allowing the kids to race Sat!
