Hey, IF possible, I'd like to have all the specs and time slips on your car. No one here belives how fast it is. IF u caould, I'd be very happy.


P.S.u did break into the 6 sec quarter mile, right?!?

Eric4Nitrous 09-03-2002 09:01 AM

No, it hasn't broke into the 6's yet..if it don't when i get the motor back and with the new chassis i'm selling it.lol Best run to date is a 7.02 199.96mph. The car is a pro-mod style chassis, funny car cage, weights a little over 2300lbs with me in it..motor is a 420ci windsor, yates C3 heads, Jesel rockers, comp cam (my secret :) ), 16:1 compression, three stages of nitrous (was two) sheetmetal tunnel ram with twin 1250 Pro-Systems Dominators, Kooks custom headers, 5 inch exhaust, Strange axles and spool, 5.36 pro gears, competition engineering wheelie bars (spring loaded), two simpson parachutes, liberty cluthless 5 speed, all msd components..couple other miscellaneous things. Hope this helps.

I'm sure u will break into the 6's. With the 1/8 time u posted a while back, I'm sure u will. By the way, what was the 1/8 time u had, I forgot.

Eric4Nitrous 09-03-2002 05:12 PM

Thanks for the compliment. My previous best 1/8th mile was a 4.42 174mph on a 10.5 tire. With the third stage 1/8th mile should be around the 4.20 range.

mustangman65_79 09-03-2002 05:19 PM

DO u have any pics of it yet. I don't thnk I've seen any.

Wait, u ran a 4.42 @175mph? U havn't rana quater mile yet? That would be a 6.9 et. If u ran a 4.20, @ lets say 185, that would be a 6.55 @233mph. Thats cooking.

I still think it's weird that those tires made that much of a diff.

Eric4Nitrous 09-03-2002 05:37 PM

I should have my pictures back from Keith prolly monday at the latest. I called him the other day and he said the car's coming along very good. So i'm excited. I'm getting the chassis re-certified, and having the nose part of my front end reshaped so it will cut the air better. I'm hoping the motor's gonna run strong with the new edelbrock nitrous system. I don't know if it'll ever go 6.55 at NMRA legal weight but who knows :confused: I'm selling the car after racing season is over and getting a new 02 GT body in white to turn into a pro car. Gonna use the same motor and tranny i got now.

mustangman65_79 09-03-2002 05:53 PM

Never know about making a 6.55. Question is, do u have the gear for 230+ mph?

How come u want a newer body? DOn't u have a LX body now? Or am i mistaken?

Eric4Nitrous 09-03-2002 06:52 PM

I don't have the gear right now to go 230mph. It turning 9800rpm through the traps now. So i'd have to go to something like a 4.30 gear or something relatively close to that. I want a newer body style so i can take advantage of the weight breaks and aero "wars". the body style i have now is a GT.

Yes this does help by the way. Isn't the '95-'98 body style more aero?

Eric4Nitrous 09-04-2002 09:03 AM

The 95-98 body style is no more aerodynamic than my car is now. Before i had the chassis work done the 95-98 style was more aerodynamic. But the 99-02 style's offer much more aerodynamics and i can get them lighter than i can my GT. I'm gonna build the new car like a pro-mod. Pro-mod chassis, pro-mod cage, etc. It'll just be the same car on the outside with a pro-mod type chassis and such.

mustangman65_79 09-05-2002 01:31 AM
