Any other 9 second S-Trim's out there??

[RdRunnr]

I'd like to know how he gets 12psi out of it. My s-trim will only do 9-10 and I have a 2.95 pulley. What is his comp ratio?

I saw 18psi with my strim and 8" crank/3.33" in upper. I also saw 18 psi with the 2.95 upper and stok 6.87' lower. The first combo was the better setup though with less slipage and quicker buildup.

Rdrunnr You seen 18#? Mine has never done that even with the stock bottom end. Now it makes ten and I think its just doing that. Maybe I'm not working it hard enough.

RPM's and a tight belt are a blower's two best friends.

well mine hasn't hit the 10's yet cause I haven't even been to the 1/4 lately since some changes. But it should do mid to low 10's now.

but mine has ran a 6.67@106 with 1.6 60ft in the 1/8. I don't think thats to bad with 11psi. With a looser converter it should go 6.5's, my thinking and thats what alot of other people have told me to.

Iirc, I have the first one into the 9's getting ready to go onto my 347 :D



did I fail to mention I bought it from Robin Lawrence? ;)

[RSNovi]

Did he call up and ask for it back now that the S-trim gets a smaller pulley and a 150# weight break?

[Jon01]

Not yet ;)

We went back up this past weekend and he ran a 9.8 @ 136. This coming weekend is our local Mustang shootout. We will have vids and pics of this awesome S-Trim powered car!

what cam is he running to turn 6800 rpm?also, how heavy is the car?

video's would be nice :)

thanks

It is a solid roller setup, the cam is very small I think in the 612 lift range. As for the weight I am not sure but I will check on it. Last I checked I think it was 3190??

that thing runs good. did he ever have it dynoed?

[root]

He did mention getting some numbers soon but for now it runs so strong I do not think he has to worry :)

I would really like to see a 9.6X this weekend but we will have to see :)

Bob if you are reading this what do you think?? Think she will go a 9.6X :D
