Hell, I added them to my G2 hemi. I figured with twins and a hot tune on pump gas it might prevent some carnage causing detonation...For a drag car, just buy the plugs and get rid of the oilers.

They certainly won’t hurt. Until they fall apart. For a strip only car the time spent at wide open full boost the oilers don’t do much in my opinion. Hell with twins and a hot tune up, your run probably only lasts 8 seconds. Detonation is a much bigger concern. Of course I could be proven wrong. For a half mile car or a road course car I could see a big benefit to having them and would call it a necessity.Hell, I added them to my G2 hemi.

there is room. been there almost 3 yesrs and never been an issue. looks like it just failed and fell out upon inspection. they help a bunch even in a drag engine. very under rated part for sure.I don't think there is adequate room for the oilers and a stroker crank. I know my N/A 6.1 based 426 does not have them. It is 4.08 bore, 4.08 stroke, 6.125 rod. A 6.1 DOES have the from factory.
i do have the springs now just no time to install. my daily/tow vehicle crapped the trans out a few weeks ago. been trying to get it fixed up and the trans rebuilt to be tougher than stock.(2017 5.3 silverado 4x4) once its fixed or out of the way. ill get the dart springs done. been a long and painful summer.
We are going up north on Saturday, I'd like to come see your car finally. Looks like fun.
sooo. i made time. valve springs installed and all back together
has some.happier rpm for sure now. got 2 of 8 spark plugs but rest be here tomorrow. get them installed and saturday gonna finally run a race for once. the king of the 28s at us36 osborn mo. gonna run small tire and see if i can go a few rounds or take the 1st round losers race. either way should be fun. still vehicleless and another racer has offered to tow me up to run it. hope it all works out. time will tell shortly.
11.5:1 under boost. timing is 14-16° total wot. its pretty darn conservitive. it dont have rpm troubles no more either. however it has bald *** radial issues now that cant handle the extra 4-500hp more it now makes over 6500.What are you commanding for your A/F ratios and where are you at on timing? Feel free to message me on FB. thanks!
Step by step! You are getting there. I am glad you are getting it out and having some fun. Even though you haven't had the wins you were looking for, I view this project as a huge success. Before you know it, it will be flying! BTW a huge congrats to you for the 5 second run!!
nope. datalog shows some insanity and im still trying to figure out wtf caused it.. nee tires and crank sensors already on the car.LOL have you ran with the new tires yet?
