Nitrous backfire!

What's up Greg! When are you gonna come out to tnt again?

Been working. Im not sure on TNT i want to go out and run but I will just be sending money to make one pass that sucks. I have the cage just need it installed (nice welds). I might go in 2 weeks just to get the number I want 10.999 at the least. The engine is coming along I want to be ready for shelby and Mods VS Rods

Hell yeah! Sounds like you have a plan! Us mod motor guys are gonna need your help for sure at the mod vs rod shootout!

I forgot about the cage thing out there. There was a supercharged C6 vette out there last friday. He made a 10.8x pass and they let him keep running without a roll bar/cage. He shut it down at the 1/8th tho after the 10sec pass.

Yeah they let the GM cars run without cages but not the Fords. The last time I was out they were leting him run I bitched about it but they told me it had a cage in it and it was all behind the interior. I told Dan he was out of his mind you cant fit a cage behind the interior.

I will try and help out but remember I cant shift half the time

Hey I might just sand bag it this year and qualify with a 14.50 and then let her loose

ah you pussy....mine was a D&D up until a year ago, plenty of 10sec times when it was juice only and plenty of slips when it went 9.9x with a turbo and a AOD, WITH a hyper bottomend....

guess i just had bigger balls than most people at my age

You were just young and dumb. if I remember right you were running 10s with the 4 lug set up and slicks thats balls or just plain nuts

yes i was, it was an auto so it was easy on everything including the 100% stock 8.8 that was in there even when i was in the 9's

Not even 31 spline axles/diff! What kind of rpm did you leave the line at?

I remember a green vert stock runnin nos launching at 5500 and shattering the rear about 10 years ago

oh my god.... are your serious. you been lucky.

i wouldnt say lucky, just playing the right cards to make it a total budget build

^
I'd have to say it was a very well put together build then!

This may have been answered already.. I didnt read.. 85 was a flat eyebrow cut TRW forged without a dish, 86 was a true flat top forged piston (they suck), then 1987 to mid year 92 was a forged eyebrow cut slightly dished piston. Supposedly you can tell by the color of the oil pan if it is forged or hyper on the 92. I think a black pan is hyper and a grey pan is forged or the other way around, I dont remember but it is suppose to be a mid year change on them. The same forged engine was also offered in many of the HO thunderbirds, XR7 cougars and LCS Lincoln Mark VII's. The HO had the throttle body facing the passenger fender and the non HO had it facing the drivers side on most of them. Also the HO clearly says HO on top of the upper intake where the non HO did not.

nice ... a better answer than what i expected.

Well this was left after my timing chain took a dump in my old 302 and smacked my Trick Flow twisted wedge head valves in to one of my piston. wasn't much room to play with when you have an E303 and 1.7 roller rockers. Good bye 302 and hello 331 stroker kit.
