Hello Gents,
I'd like to give those who helped me with my car/engine project a little update.
Last Sunday I raced my car with the new 427" SBC , after four years away from the Dragstrip building the engine and upgrading the drivetrain, suspension and brakes.
I'm happy because my car accelerate and brake straight, and looks like the engine is making some steam, although it need fine tunning to maximum performance.
The suspension also need a few tweeks to improve the sixty foot.
So far the best 1/8 mile ET is 1.81 60 foot and 7.004@ 106MPH and is kind of impressive (overhere in Brazil) for a street/strip gas burner, heavy car .
The Velopark Dragstrip was full of cars and lines, so I didn't have time to test engine and suspension changes, I just tweeked tire pressure.
I'm very happy with my car performance and I believe I can hit the high sixes on the next race.
So, once again, thanks everybody for the great, and I mean GREAT help you guys gave me, these results wouldn't be possible without your help
This is my baby in action:
