Yea I tell you what I will trade you even up for that rolly bar install. That picture means more to me than any trophy I have ever one from drag racing and I have a few... To be out in front of the guy to beat in the area for 20+ years is pretty priceless.
Nah, for the record yes I got shown the rear of the dart 3 times that day, I thought the launch was pretty clean on that run....?? I got a picture in picture vid from both cars and it's pretty awesome I will have to drop it off some day.
I have a '79 Malibu Landau Classic. 49K original mile car. 406, AFR's, custom ground solid lifter cam, TH350 with 2400 stall, GN 8.5" with 3.42's. UMI upper/lower rear control arms and ST front rear sway bars. TorqueTech 3" full exhaust.
well I started out by measuring the runner length on my cast aluminum m1 intake, and then I basically guessed and built this one with a little longer runners, then I had a buddy(jolleywrencher) draw the sides, top, and carb mounting base, one top for a dominator and one for a 4150 style carb, he sent it to the guy I have water jet all my shit and then I built the intake, I started out with a flat top on it then took it to the dyno and we just kept adding spacers until the volume efficiency leveled out, we lost power with the dominator so I am useing the 4150 style, jolleywrencher then took and figured out the area of all the spacers we used and redrew the top to the height it is now, I had that water jet out then cut the top and welded it all back together the way it is now, I put water outlets on all four corners, and installed the proflow nitrous popoffs in the front and rear, the reason I did all this is that my motor is not getting the air it needs, to many cubes and not enough air flow, the intake helped but I am still lacking in the heads, I may fix that before spring, not sure, it may just stay how it is
BBK Throttle Body
BBK headers
Flow master
accle wires
short ram intake
sorry guys just started on this car, wow I feel slow now
I agree with Repo Man.
Even though you haven't asked, I'll give you some advice anyway.
Build the car within what YOU are going to be happy with and try not to match what another guy is doing. Realize that no matter how you build it, there will always be someone quicker and or faster. If you accept this, you'll enjoy your ride alot longer than most.

Well put.
My whole idea when I bought my current car was to have a 9 sec car that I could drive all day and go to the track and not have to work at the track. I see the fast guys in pit row bustin ass in between rounds and that I def did not want.
