Hey Trav,

Was this new read out made from the header modification alone?

Great output btw mate. Impressive to see strong numbers on an NA motor.


Cheers Shav. Yeah and removal of the cat.

Here is some info http://www.andra.com.au/competitor/even ... w/936.html

Unsure if private entry's are permittted :)

You should add 190+ rwkw NA 6cyl to the heading of this thread :)

Did Bruce suggest extending the pacemakers? Jim Mock's Extractors are insanely long - I thought their was a science to how long you extend them for max benefit?


Yeah but at $130 entry isnt gonna happen for me this time.
Tailem Bend also around that time has 1/8mile at only $65 so im heading there insted.

Yeah, Bruce done the work. He did this on the saloon cars, I trust he knows whats best.

Ran my car at Tailem Bend 1/8 mile drags at the weekend.
Best was 9.57@77.45.
Gonna splash out for some drag radials for next time. Traction was a little issue.
Also think I was too soft on take off. Not giving it the revs I should've.

I had these rims on for a couple months. Gave it a simple, clean look.
The 17's are back on it with some semi slick style tyres.

Image

Bought a new gear knob too. Hopefully I'll be able to shift better with a better grip on it, opposed to the previous one.

Old one.

Also splashed out on a couple of these for the drags. Pick them up in a day or two.
Hopefully they help.

Yeah, thats why ive splashed out on the M/T's.
I know my take off's were abit conservative due to wheel spin. I was riding the clutch abit to limit wheelspin.

Lol, given I know a few guys who have been racing for 25 years that can't predict off a single piece you must be a miracle worker.
