got to race a little before i broke tranny!

a little smoke.
I havn't had any good times yet. Best times were. 8.5 in 1/8th and 13.1 in 1/4 at 103 mph. That was with 4.10 gears and without a good tune. And hitting rev limiter at 5800 when cams pull to 6200. Still hasnt been dyno tuned! Ill be shooting for 12's once a track opens again. I wanna try running on slicks.

i love Love the set up, are the heads ported?

 

[atlblue98gt]

i love Love the set up, are the heads ported?

No, I wish they were. I hand polished them cleaning up all the burrs. If the heads have to come off for any reason, they're getting ported! :D
And the only other thing i hate, ia have an 8 bolt windsor crank. Thats the only thing not forged in the bottom end.

You are the first person that i have heard of putting cams on their two valve what is the difference with the 278's power output?
