Starting to get some more pictures trickling in. Here are some from the other grandstand side. This was on Rich's arm drop qualifying pass. Ran a low 9 on this one, pushing water again, this was 13.5 psi of boost. I was a street car in a sea of race cars in this faster car field. I am sure I took this Nova by surprise!
Looks like your tire is rubbing the quarter. I now have a new back ground for the computer in the first one! Looks Awesome Chris!
The guy in the Nova had to be thinking WTF!!!!

What does your cooling system consist of and do you drive it on the street? I'm curious because I see how close the turbo is and all I see are those tiny fans.

Griffin rad and 2 10" fans, works good on the street. Before I braced the the rad, the turbo actually rubbed a hole in the radiator. I Patched it and braced it, seems ok now. There is like .030" clearance to the compressor housing.

Still running 6s huh? We went to the 7s this year. Have 8s to go in but not sure when.
I have a box of 7's sitting here, I should have put them in. They might have helped.
I pulled the heads yesterday, and it had been detonating and that is what lifted the heads. Going to have to check it further to see if I need new pistons, but the heads are going to have to be cleaned up. Not bad, but not what I wanted to see.
Way too much timing for the quarter mile.
