23* small block chevy? - Page 6

Drag Radial · 06-11-2009, 07:15 PM

I'm getting ready to put our 406 back in and do some testing to see how much better the Eddy 23 degree RR Victor Head is compared to my old school 867 Pontiacs. Hopefully the numbers work right and we get it into the 5.40 range with a single stage plate, progressive, and 3100 lbs on a 275. We already went 5.84/118 with it on a 65N jet so I'm thinking we can do it!

Those Edelbrock heads that much better? Or is it a different block/bore too?

There's an old saying "Never judge a book by it's cover" kinda of inside joke on my end about a guy we know that use to have a car that sorta looked like a Pro Mod but only ran 12.90's with a Blown BB Mopar. But anyway you get the drift........

Alan, that is trully one bad import dude! Very impressive to say the least.

So you can de-tune it a little bit and run the 8.50 class with that bad boy.

I lvoe those $50 valve covers.

If I saw that engine and you said you wanted to race heads-up I would say go for it buddy. I'd be watching you pull-away from me the entire track. In fact, you would probably be pulling off the damn track as I was going through the traps!

But, I know better after meeting you at Steves class.

Good luck with it. I wanna see you bring that up to E-Town sometime.

i have some vids trying to get the car dialed in for the index ,,i can run the number on 2 stages pretty consistant with 200 1st stage 100 second stage on a 2.5 second delay..
1st pass 45 seconds in is a 200 shot for an 8.70 been 8.67 best on 200.

then i have 3 more passes one 60 ft at 8:30 in
and the two 8.57 is at 6 min 35 seconds in
and finally as close as ive come to dialing the number was at 10min30sec for 8.52@158
this is from last october i think

No I'm going to try and keep everything the same when we get it back in the car.

Brand new Eddy Victors and new Wilson Super Victor VS the 867's and a Dart Wilson Intake.

Let us know the outcome

Drag Radial · 06-12-2009, 10:49 AM

Will do! Heck our little 383 with unported Vic Jrs went 5.88/115 this past weekend on an 85 jet in the same car so I am expecting big things when we hit the 406 with 300!
