One of these past Fridays I Build a Motor, Put it in and tuned it on E-85
The motor is a GE sleeved block my old race motor.
Old Crower Rods with a spun wristpin bearing
Some JE pistons I found in my Shed.
The rings that where in my Race motor.

The car went 10.39@135 the first pass at the track at import Vs domestic. I missed 4th and when i got it in it broke up. it was 115mph in the 1/8
I made another pass and it 10.5@134
then my last pass it went 10.34@137 107 in the 1/8th
Overall i am going to leave it at this power level I am maxxing out the 1200’s and my A1000 is starting to leak (dont know why).
haha yeah its always packed…the first year we went there were alot of v8 guys but the rules then it was v8 vs 4cly one power adder and they were getting killed…there was lots of trash talking then lots of missing gears not running right discussions between them after they couldnt out run a few hondas…wish i couldve made it this year though. did you tune the car?
Yea I raced the “true street class” It was slicks on all cars and a 67mm turbo limit (4CYL) and all motor on V8’s. I have a feeling next year that that turbo limit will be like 61mm or something. because there was a civic that went 9.4@156
I built, installed, and tuned my car alone in 1 day.
this was on a stock ignition. too
Haha I will give you some pointers when you get there.
Good **** Joe! I accidently went past your shop the other day when going to Nickolichs to pick up a Cal U van deer hit. I stopped in to say hi but you were not in… told the guys there to tell you that I said hi… but im sure they forgot.
Nice numbers man, i’m hoping for similar numbers next year, actually a bit more but not by too much
because there was a civic that went 9.4@156
thats moving well for that turbo hard for n/a V8’s to catch that.
I wish i could have gotten my nitrous bottle filled up i would have loved to see what it would have done on the sauce. oh well, have a cracked flexplate so no more driving or me this year
Next year i’ll have a new setup to tune so i’ll be hittin up your shop for sure
I am going to drain the E-85 and put it on Some race gas. and try and make more power. I need to get to a track this winter. i am dying here. Whats the closest open track?
