.800 lift ? I thought I had a lot with .630. What is the ratio of the rockers 1.8:1 or more?

Cool. did you also switch to roller cam (as mentioned?) Maybe a lower CR?  Would be a pity if you melt those beauties. |

Hey Mexx
How did you get on last weekend? Did you get a chance to test them in anger?
All my best

Dear Alex As Karl mentioned I was not able to test them at the race on the 29th of March in HU. Sometimes there are small parts that prevent the great things to happen.  After first warm up the engine was runnin' pretty well, and only some minor changes were done. Second start up was the same as wells. But when I tried to start the engine and go racing the starter broke and I was unable to start again. MeXX |

Yesterday I got the second chance to test the new heads in a racing event. Although it was only 1/8 mile on a very dirty road track the engine and the clutch performed very well. Being able to run the best time of the day with a 5,87 and beating the 1300 HP Audi quattro by 1/100 of a second.

As seen in the "clutch thread" Mexx did a 9.1 in 2013 with 5.9 in the 1/8mile on a prepped track. Now, with those heads he was running same ET on that "dirt track"  WOW. |

Hi I was out for racing on Sunday. I was not really happy when I realiced that the traction was much better than expacted and my 4-link was set up for to much anti-squat resultring in a car that dented to wheelie heavily. Never the less I was able to win the final, and run a daily best of: 60 feet 1.458 1/8 5.985 @ 198.41km/h 1/4 9.158 @ 247.81km/h [ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Great! But I guess if you let Freddy drive, the first 8 is here soon. Its perfect engineering, a great car, a good track. So the last missing piece in this puzzle must be a good driver |

9.158! How much nitrous? Dear Jon As engine is still new I was runnin' less nitrous than usual keepin' the nitrous pressure lower (900 psi instead of 1050 psi) and retardin' the ignition 2° more as I still didn't find the time for dyno. So I guess the added horsepower was around 170-180 Hp. The plan for the next week is to visit the dyno, and go for racing at Bechine (CZ) on 25-27 of April on a very well prepped track. MeXX |

Hi
As T&T in Bechyne was canceled we changed our plans and will go on 30 of April & 1. of May to Kunmadaras (HU)
one of the best tracks I have ever raced.
The track is 70m wide and from the staring line to the end 2500m long and perfectly prepped.
