It pisses me off so bad I didn't get to see it run (one of the main reasons I went) and sucks also that I didn't get to check the setup a little bit longer.
For anyone curious this does not look as hacked up / gutted as a lot of cars I see at a much heavier race weight.
Congrats TSP!
I didn't get to see it run either

We do run race gas in the car. It isn't a pump gas motor.
So it's a stock bottom end that isn't a pump gas motor?

Yes tho the fact it probably has a good rod bolt in it and notched pistons will get some around here burnt up over the "stock bottom end" claim. Personally I could care less 346 inches GM piston,rod,crank 9.66 enough said.

Did this with a GM head and pump gas!
why would notched pistons have anything negative towards a stock bottom end? and who has said there are aftermarket rod bolts. there maybe, buti havent seen it posted.
as for pump gas vs race gas - again, who cares. if you mill down a set of 5.3L heads and a thin gasket, you could definately run into issues with higher compression.

I'm pretty sure when I talked to him at the shootout he said it had aftermarket rod bolts...I could be wrong but Im pretty sure. I couldn't care less though, rod bolts don't make it not "stock bottom end"

OoOoh wait until the stock bottom end police pay this thread a visit. There are members here that adhere to the strict letters of the law I obviously could give a shit about flycuts and rodbolts as well but I am biased because I have done those to both my LS series motors. It was for this reason my signature has things spelled out a bit more.

Wrap a big blanket around the motor and tie it tight!
As for RWHP that car should be in the 520 range with those DA's.

Police will be here soon, that's for sure!
Predator will be tuning in from Dubai with a bunch of crap to say that nobody cares about.
That's an unbelievable ET, VERY nice job!! You guys have that combo well tuned in and it's cood to see a H/C car going mid 9's!!
I want more info on those PRC 227 small bore heads as they're not on the website yet. Alot of 383 guys probably would like to get those. And that MS-5 should be interesting too, I doubt it will be a solid roller though because a fast intake probably wouldnt feed it.

So it's a stock bottom end that isn't a pump gas motor?
Jugg, why didn't you get the compression up to 14-15:1 and run some race gas too?

How would you get a stock 346ci shortblock to 14-15:1 compression with a .040" head gasket and ~52cc combustion chamber and "who knows" what size flycut valve reliefs? (2-3cc?) It comes out to ~12.5:1 everytime I figure it.
Fuel comparisons make way less of a difference than running in really good mineshaft air. I would rather have pump gas and -1800 ft DA, than "race gas" and -250 ft DA.
