r/t .047
60' 1.939
330 5.712
1/8 8.976
mph 74.05
1000 11.888
1/4 14.384@89.49 mph

running a basically stock 406sb/th400 2500stall and 3.73 gears.. dot 28x10 slicks and hooked good. Doesnt my 1/4 mph seem slow for what I was running at the 1/8th??
Anyway I had a great day of racing and hope you all did too!! thanks for any input

I tend to agree with what was said about the inline filter. A 4.11 gear would you a bit, but get your delivery issue sorted out first. That carb should be ample for what you are putting out.

As far as your times, that is pretty damn strong for the combo that you have.

What is your timing?

That 60' is really hurting you. You said you arent spinning, but I doubt you are over-tired with a 28x10. Sounds like you arent loading/launching the weight very well. What type of suspension are you running? Sure its not slipping?
