New times with newly installed Novi 2k...

Last friday night was the first time out with the new Novi 2k.

My previous best with a tko and n2o was 11.37 @ 121 mph w/ a 1.59 60ft. 1/8th mile on that pass was 7.27 @ 96.7. The car weighed just under 3400lbs on that pass.....

New time with an AOD and Novi 2k (stock pullies) was 10.92 @ 122.63 w/ a 1.65 60ft. 1/8th mile was 6.965 @ 100.79. I lifted from WOT slightly at the 1000ft mark to settle the car down (it was getting pretty squirrely). AFR was 11.0:1 going through the traps.

I'm stoked!

FWIW, the combo is pretty simple....

351w, stock stroke and bore.
Cast crank and stock rods. Heavy TRW slugs
9.2:1 compression
unported TFS heads
unported TFS intake
cam is 228/232 290/295 112deg
75mm tb
80mm ProM maf
77# inj.
255 intank pump
NOS inline pump
sn95 fuel rails
stock fuel lines
built AOD with STOCK vb (:eek: )
PI convertor

There's SOOOOOOOOO much left in this combo, it's not even funny.

Just had to share.

Regards,

Congrats!!!!! That car is flat out flying. Its amazing how much torque that 351 makes with a little boost:D

Oh yeah... the weight on the 10 sec pass was 3482 lb. The ponies were on the front as well, b/c I forgot the lugnuts for my weld skinnies at home, lol.

I have an A9L and a chip. I do my own chips and tuning.

did you have to modify the supercharger bracket for any clearance problems with the hood or anything else. i have a 351 that i want to put on a 2000 on very soon. just trying to prepare so the install goes smoothly. any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Thanks for coming by to see me this weekend Fred!!!!!!!! :( Oh well, there is always NMRA Ennis, then FFW Ennis. See you then. Congrats on the new et's.

Mike

nice numbers fred. sounds like you got some major potential there.

Hey you still using that same NOS pump i sold you so many years ago??

Hey Mike W.,

DOOD, my buddy told me you were there and said to come by. By the time I was done with True Street, I went out on the pit bike in search, and never saw a DMP booth. I looked on Sunday too, and saw nothing. Where were you guys at? Did you leave early?

Mike G.,

YUP, the same ol' pump is still kickin'!

Update.... won low 11sec avg at Houston FFW True Street with an 11.02, 11.10, and 11.00. The heat wouldn't allow the 10sec pass on Saturday.

On Sunday, the car went 10.87 @ 127mph! My goal is 130mph by the end of the year. We'll see. Again, this is on the combo listed above. The weight this weekend was 3435 lb.

Regards,

Fred,
congrats in true street!

Yo Fred, see you are making the rounds, I'm looking into boost for the '79 I like what you and Ben are doing with the NOVIs.

They rock, for sure!

Any word on those AOD parts? Need to start ordering stuff this week if possible. Trying to make the Clash on June 28.
