You'll really have some numbers when you change cam, gearing, converter, and put some thin head gaskets on it.
Good stuff, guess I have a few videos to watch.Ran consistent 13.3's in decent air. I would guess it'd run high 12's now.
Yep, weighed them. It's actually in my "home inspection" video. About 52 lbs difference for the pair.
I gained a solid 4 mph in between my markings on the back road (less than a 1/4 mile, maybe 900 ft ?) My speedometer is pretty still in that car too, so it's easy to see the gains. Tried it twice. It seems it wants more fuel since the head swap. I stomped it hard out of the hole today and got a lean snap (never ever did that before), but it launched hard with a dead hook and was gone!Lookin forward to the track results!!
I like that you didn’t change anything else on the combo.
I think the 13.3’s out of it with the stock heads, tiny cam, and 2.94’s was fantastic.
Anything beyond that is just a bonus........ and if it actually dips into the 12’s...... that’ll really be something.
If I understand right, we are having bracket racing plus tnt tomorrow. I think I'll have a slice of that pie, perhaps by tomorrow afternoon the jury will be in on what the difference the SM heads made! I'm excited, love stuff like this
of course... of course IF i'm by myself I'll do the best I canWe will need a youtube video you know....
of course... of course
Hey wait a minute!? you mean my Speedmaster heads won't improve anything but his will?...If you run fast enough, maybe j par will finally push the nitrous button!

Just some quick thoughts while waiting for Test and Tune
you starting stuff ?? lolIf you run fast enough, maybe j par will finally push the nitrous button!
yes, nice improvement!Purdy cool man. I bet you can really feel a difference.
I think you'll see a gain. Obviously your ported heads with 2.02's were much more up to the task than my stock 360 heads, but I still think you'll see gain. You have a lot more cam than I have, and I don't think my small cam is allowing the heads to go full potential.Hey wait a minute!? you mean my Speedmaster heads won't improve anything but his will?...
Awesome. Go get em. KimIf I understand right, we are having bracket racing plus tnt tomorrow. I think I'll have a slice of that pie, perhaps by tomorrow afternoon the jury will be in on what the difference the SM heads made! I'm excited, love stuff like this
Headed to the track yet? LolIf I understand right, we are having bracket racing plus tnt tomorrow. I think I'll have a slice of that pie, perhaps by tomorrow afternoon the jury will be in on what the difference the SM heads made! I'm excited, love stuff like this
Leav'n now. I have to run in Trophy today. SM Report Card Time !! Anything in the 13's, boo... Anything in the 12's, Yipee…..Headed to the track yet? Lol
101. I feel I could have ported the stock heads and got that 2.5 tenths. Those heads need more cam than what I have.2 and a half tenths ? not bad. What was the MPH
You could have ported the cast irons, that's a no brainer. but 2.5 with no cam change is pretty good.101. I feel I could have ported the stock heads and got that 2.5 tenths. Those heads need more cam than what I have.
99. Ran 80 in the 1/8 before, today 82what was the MPH before.
Swap the cam, gears, and converter and it wouldn't be the same car.You could have ported the cast irons, that's a no brainer. but 2.5 with no cam change is pretty good.
