The humid summer air is starting to fade around here and i was able to set a new best over the weekend. The bottom end is a junk yard 4.8 its running on 93 octane with meth injection and i think i hit around 19psi on this run. car is a full interior daily driven street car.
here is a small video my brother did, he cut it off early and wasnt in HD but you can see the small power wheelie it pulled past the 60ft. and here is the time slip.

im the 9.240

 

Wow that is going low... Great times man. What all is done to the 4.8L?

 

the bottom end is junk yard stock. the heads and cam are the only upgrades. tough little motors, i have had it as high as 24psi on the street i plan on going for a 8 second pass soon as it cools off in the fall, i think cold air and a few more psi will do it, the motor might not like it long but its already lasted all season and thats ,longer then i thought it would.

 

Congrats, that is making damn good power. GM for life.

 

That's awesome, congrats!

What vehicle is it in? FB link didn't work for me.

 

no fb here...but thats a nice slip,so no ARP bolts or rings gapped?gaskets?

 

head bolts are arp, head gaskets are ls9 while i had the block apart to sand the rust out of the cylinder walls and rings cause it sat with water in it i did file the top ring a little to increase the gap some.

 

the links broken? the car is a 1971 datsun 240z

 

Your car is gorgeous Nice run btw
