Well done,looks like you are on your way to beating my best time when I had a 202 which was 13.1.It took me several attempts to get that.

I can't really remember what times I ran first time out but it wasn't a 13,more like a 19 or a 21 with lots of wheelspin,nearly got booted out for trying to go down the track sideways at the EC dragstrip.Best of the runs that night was a low 14,slower than what the old owner did lol.

Beast! Congratulations on the entry of the 13sec bracket

...excuse my ignorance, but what is the hose enterring the motor's side plates?
Can we have some specs? :rolleyes:

Very tough 6 cylinder!! Love it!

I'll add you to the drag time register!

For some reason, the time card isnt working.. If you can try re-linking to the image, I'll grab the incremental times from teh time card and update the register with that too!

Cheers

do you gain much from running the breathers on the sideplates?

The bloke doing the Rangie engine for me told me that they are now running vacuum pumps on breathers for drag cars to help suck the pistons down, relieve breathing, and prevent oil leaks. Never heard of it but makes sense to me. :blink:
