He mentioned a Mezeirre water pump on page 2, Mark. I "assume" he was electric from the get go.

New 510 CID Eddie Head 760 HP Combo in the Fairmount.

I linked it to make it easier to find and compare the performance difference.

Keep in mind that 9.36 pass was with a 6,200 Rpm shift point vs. 6,800 Rpm on the 5.88 1/8 mile pass.

We'll have to wait and see what he reports but, I'd bet mid to low 9.20's in this air, if it's like in my area.

Fastest pass to date is a 9.268 at 143 but air was very very good and launch rpm cranked up a bit leaving 4k ,the car in bracket sportsman tree trim i leave 2800 to 3k on 2 step and I don't have the wheel speed of leaving higher and less 60ft but this past weekend morning to mid day was 9.38 to 9.42 but you know ya may hold a little 😀. Summer heat like nasty it slowed up to mid 9.50s but on race gas not alky . This is all 2800 to 3k rpm launch .

I ended up winning a ford vs chevy shootout this past weekend 22 cars entered .........I even had to beat my wife 2nd round lol

There maybe more in it depending on air but that 9.268 was killer air and with pro brake i have I turn launch rpm down and end up 1.37 1.38 60fts to be were I need to lights that is . As a whole the car is happy in that high 9.30s low 9.40s in regular race setup
