I ran a 10.3 in the 1/8th, my vid came out looking like a pic,but can still click on it and watch..H'e's pretty loud too!
I was thinking about replacing the 2 bbl with a 4 bbl..
I have an Edelbrock performer intake waiting for it already,currently looking for a carb. Will that make much difference in times?

Hmm. I dont have your heads.
But I do have a 750 Double and an Airgap intake.
My problem is gears. Think I have 3.o8 like I said I was in second gear when I crossed the line. I don't even have posi which is strange for a z.

I have also thought about converting it to standard and getting a different backend too.I didn't want to go crazy building him up for racing.The heads I got on trade.I have other cars and a family,and sure everyone knows how that goes.I had him for 8 years and he's come along way in the past 4. I wanted a show car to cruise in too..He gets 17mpg and think the 2bbl contributes to that.If I put that 4 on,i'm not guaranteed to get under 10 sec,and with the speedway over an hour away,my gas mileage would be terrible.I think like you said in another thread that reaction time may of compromised a couple of tenths of a second.I'm going to try a few more times as he is,and see what happens.

under 10 in 1/8? that 3 tenths.
You could do that with a carb and intake. You will see a difference. However , your gas will drop a lot. I think I get about 8 miles to the gallon. I dont have a gas gauge or odometer at the moment so that is a big guess. Might get as high as 12 if I drive very nicely. I couldnt care less about gass mileage, have a street bike for that.
My car is for racing, I have a trailer to get to the track if needed. Although, I have been driving it about 50 miles.

I don't have a posi either..

Of course your mileage when you're racing or putting it to the floor accelerating will drop significantly, but if you watch your right foot the rest the time you'll get great mileage.
