Very nice car!

[stussyrich]

Thought id better update this abit..   so i went out to york dragway a few weeks back with the old setup and straight of the trailer ran an 11.97.

Took it to vw action at santa pod and ran 4 12.0's with the stinger and 51.5's..so i was unsure if they helped at all..
I decided to leave them on the motor and go to york for viking volks fest this weekend and  11.91 @ 111.9 with a 1.58 60ft..
thinks got even better after on an 11.9 dial in i broke out with 11.86 @ 110.8 with a 1.58 60ft.....
I do actually think there may be a little more in the car yet..

Nice one. Where did the .5 second come from? 60ft to 1/8th mile?

[stussyrich]

60ft    1/8th ET   1/8th mph      1/4 ET      1/4 mph

...        7.55         90.75           11.97         110.6
1.58     7.52         90.87           11.91         111.97
1.58     7.45         90.90           11.86         110.83
            
I also think that i was racing Daz Chandler helped me alllot...

I dunno why I thought it was half a second. My eyes are going funny.

So you gained the 10th between the 60ft and the 1/8th

Well done Rich !!  Do you feel the 51.5's are helping over the 48's....assuming the choke / venturi size and jetting has remained as was with the 48's ?  Or the stinger as you usually run with the muffler right on 12 zeros's ?

Thanks for sharing,

Shane.

yes the first time slip 11.97 was on the old setup so in total your right.. same track and conditions so i think the header and carbs did help..

I ran the 11.97 on 48's and muffler..

The 51's have not be jetted the same as the 48's the vents are bigger. They came straight of Daz's 2 litre motor and the A/F was pretty good so i left them as they were..
In reality i only run 42x37.5 valves so the 48's with 40 vents and the smaller header plus muffler should work better.. with larger valves it would go even better...
I will be building another motor with large heads and the 51's on soon so we'll see what numbers we get then..
So to answer your question.. honestly i don't know.. only a dyno would show the results properly.
