Sisu, what's your secret?!?! I'd say a majority of the cars with your combo are running 116-124mph. You are running 10mph faster than that!

I've seen setups run 134mph, but they had 20lbs of boost running through their S-Trim/Novi 2000. You run 10-12 lbs.

I have a few ?s regarding this setup that might help me to understand how you achieved that wicked mph.

1. How long have you had this combo together?

2. Are the intake and heads ported?

3. Has it been dyno tuned? If so, what were the numbers before and after?

4. What was your mph the very 1st time out with that combo? (1st time out assuming car was running reasonably well, i.e., no major problems w/ the combo)

Really, the dyno numbers would tell me what's going on. As I've said in previous posts, your car has to be making AT LEAST 600hp at the crank to run those mph numbers. I would think 600hp is very tough to achieve w/ that combo. Most similar combos turn 475-525hp.

Regardless, great runs!
