My camaro ran 11.70 at the local track!

HI..

IM new to the site..

I have a 1984 Camaro Z-28 with a 355 SBC..

9.0-1 compression
Dart Pro 1 heads (ported)
Dart cool can intake
1.65 harland sharp roller rockers
Crane cam.. 234/244 duration .522/.544 lift 112 center

1 5/8 headers and single 3 inch exhaust!
Procharger P1-SC with NO INTERCOOLER running 6psi of boost!
T56 tranny STOCK with STOCK clutch , 410 gears, auburn carrier

I ran at the track on a set of 274 40 17 BFG drag radials..

First pass... 12.20 at 114mph.. SPUN HARD in second gear , dropped clutch at 2000 rpms

Second pass... 12.20 at 120mph.. spun harder in second gear, dropped cluch at 2000rpms

THIRD PASS... REMOVED EXHAUST DUMP!
11.70 at 121.97MPH Spun slightly in second gear and engine was starving for fuel in 4th gear! Ran out of gear, had to shift into 5th gear!

FOUR and final pass..

11.80 at 114mph... SPUN THREW FIRST AND SECOND GEARS! starved for fuel in third and forth gears!

Ill try and post some pics of the car...

Nice times for only 6psi. How well does the combo drive on the street (being blow-through carbed)?

Makes me wonder how much my stock TPI and heads are hurting me (my best tim was 12.46 with 6psi from two turbochargers on a stock L98). Mine drives nice and gets over 20mpg, but I think it should go a little faster, even at only 6psi of boost.

89jyturbo, you should be running 11.70's w/ a 117 trap speed. I ran 11.69 at 116.87 on AII MOTR

Nice times welterracer, and welcome to the site. You can send a pic to me and I'll post it for ya if you'd like. draggta@gmail.com

The combo drives great... Cam is a little lumpy but not unlivable by any means! vacume is a little low.. but being a stick helps.. car has power stearing and mechanical fan!

Im switching from a 5 inch pulley to a 4 inch pulley, to bring the Pressure up to 15 PSI... engine should make in the 750hp range after that i hope..

thanks for the praise guys..

I have two turbos sitting here now with a carb made for the flowthrough boost.. but I am stuck with the hat. was going to fab one up.. buuuuut.. that is out of the question now since i needed to buy a new welder. Buuuuuut My brother destroyed my sunfire wed night... (tried to drift my stock 5 spd/2.8L 2 door sunfire around a 25mph corner at 50 mph....... needless to say.. when you do something stupid like that in a FWD car.. and there is a tree... things happen....)

Nope.. it wont fit under stock hood.. but you could get away with a 2.5 or 3 inch cowl...

My hood is a 4 inch.. a little on the big side.. but i got a great deal on it..
