*VIDEO* Turbo FB vs V8 S-10

[estevan62274]

Went to the track to see how my car would run since i finally got it tuned.
She put down 305@12psi about 2 months ago.

She ran a 12.45@112. :driving:
I know there's more in her but i'm happy for now

Thanks for looking

Thanks, Mike!
11's would be sweet!

Down here it either V8's or nothing, but I think earned some respect that night. I got alot of complements for my car from all types of people.:icon_tup:

[sk8world]

8.0 in the 1/8th is great. throw some race gas in and turn the boost up... 11's are waiting on you!

NEW video from the other night

Best i ran that night was 13.11@111
I was taking it easy off to line.
I know the car has more in it if i could lauch it but im worried about breaking the rear.

I am glad to see you running it. So many people build there cars and never find out what they can do! I am sure the car is safe to add some psi. Put in some race gas and turn her up! Or call Ray and discuss with him.

Mike,
Now, I really wished that I tuned her for more boost! :(
But we did have CAS problems that day on the Dyno, and now its been running flawlessly since that day!
Not one hickup like it was doing on the dyno. :dunno:

I'm going to talk to Ray about turning it up. :)
Honestly she really doesn't feel as fast as before.
I guess i'm already used to the cars power.

[sk8world]

Ray scaled it all the way thru and that with pump gas. Put in some c16 turn it up and dont worry.

[estevan62274]

new best from the other night 12.44@116 :driving:
If I could lauch this bitch I know that I could be in the 11's :banghead:
Sorry on video just a time slip
Steve

[sk8world]

congrats on the new best. What was the 60 footer?

[estevan62274]

60ft 2.194
It's pretty shitty!

[Bryan@BNR]

If you blow your rear end, you can have my GSL rear from my 84. Its got 120K on it. I have some moser axles for the stock rear end that converts it to 5 lug and also a respeed rear brake conversion kit that I didn't use on my FB. If you want those pieces just let me know. You can go mid 11's on a stock rear end with axles and not have to worry.

That 8.8 that I put in my FB works awesome. It weighs probably 80-100 more lbs than the stocker and probably robs more power but I like launching at 8K :D.

[sk8world]

yeah.. 2.19 60 is bad. You have a 11 second car no doubt with a 1.7 to 1.8 60. I have to agree with Brian, nothing like a 8k rpm launch!

[estevan62274]

Thanks Brian but i'm going to leave the car the ways it is.
I'll just be running 12's for now....... oh well.
