Counsel (intuition) told me, no good would come from following the herd.

I am not a huge Trump supporter but was just showing his views on the vaccine he took credit for getting developed quickly.


Believing in God has zero to do with vaccinations in my mind. I never said you or anyone else should get the shots. I also never said anything negative about those that chose not to get vaccinated.


Your opposition to vaccines is your choice. You constantly throw darts at anyone who did get vaccinated as if it were some kind of evil....

Irrational thinking...

You didn't, but you did regurgitate what the TV was telling you, that far right wing religious fanatics are conspiracy theory loons.

I'm not far right wing, nor a conspiracy theorist. I'm an American who woke up to the lefts TV and Hollywood brainwashing of all Americans, both sides of the political aisle.

If you subject yourself liberal controlled TV and Hollyweird, I don't care who you are, eventually you'll become a de-facto libtard, with a liberal mindset.

If you hadn't noticed, modern liberals promote sex reassignment for children and drag queen story time in elementary schools.

The last thing I'd ever wanna be is a de-facto libtard.

Anyone who's judging their sanity by what they can regurgitate coming out of the lefty controlled boob tube, are the loons.

Everyone should know this by now. Even the loons still participating.

This is America and it is a country that stands for freedom...

I don't care for or like or am in favor of many things that have been pushed at us from the Boob Toob and Hollyweird and you're right about all that

BUT unless we decide that some of these life styles and behaviors are illegal or banned we have to tolerate them...FREEDOM

I'm also right in saying no American hasn't been free to conduct themselves anyway they *choose* in their own bedroom. However that freedom doesn't extend into introducing various perversions to elementary aged children, in public schools.

So if you're quite done being the official spokesperson for Libtard perversions crammed down everyone's throats, we'll get back on the topic of drag racing.

When will we see another 250 260 duration camshaft in a 10:1 pump gas compression BBC, making 744 HP at 7500 rpm's? It's gonna be a while if history tells us anything.

If Tucker Carlson and I were defacto libtards, with Libtard TV mindsets, we too might believe this as a bad thing. Like you do while reciting & regurgitating official lies and fabrications.

I know, 565. Did you dyno it after you changed to the small camshaft, or are you guessing?

Post a photo of the dyno sheet, that would be interesting.

What are the small camshaft specs?

Not the 565 Mike, that doesn't count, that's a real street engine built for durability. It would easily make 800+ with a cam/intake change.

Basic .030 454 w/ 4" stroke small dome piston. The key is a small 305 runner CNC Brodix STS BB-1 head and ugly manifold. My math says around 10.5 compression.
Roy Kinslow gets all the credit for this grind cam. Makes good power and his 477 with 290 race rite heads probably make close to 750 hp.

I never dyno my stuff, I get the on track numbers and form my own hypothetical hp numbers. I was taught early on know body races a dyno and those numbers can be easily manipulated.
Timeslips never lie ..........

For the record, that's the only reason I bust your balls. Dyno numbers mean nothing and anyone bragging about them is usually full of sh**.

Car weighed 3375 and went 142mph whats your hp estimate for that ticket ?? BTW ....... That run was deepstaged too Wink

Bragging is a matter of perception, I'm not offended by you posting a slip going 142 mph, so I don't perceive as you bragging.

I'm an enthusiast first and foremost, I think more should post their slips, not less.

There's nothing wrong with running good.

I'm not bragging when I post anything performance oriented, I always figure anything I can do as easily as I do, someone else could easily out do, with more work at it.

I like this camshaft you have, I looked at it, but chose not to use it, it's not a street friendly camshaft, the difference in the 020 to 050 numbers indicate it's a race cam.

18cc pump gas piston, if history tells us anything, it'll be awhile until we see another 250 260 duration camshaft making 744 hp at 7500 rpm's.

This isn't bragging, it's a performance oriented fact, based on basic camshaft fundamentals for performance.

BTW, nice looking slip. Kudos.

We'll see what we can do with it with a 18cc piston and china heads within the next couple weeks, in the Third Gen. I'm working on it as we speak.

The one on the left is the new bullet, ordered a converter this morning. Active stator converter 8" for the street 6300.

I was wrong, Mezeire is the only billet Flexplate to fly.

For the record.

Lunati 252 260 Hot Street custom solid roller camshaft sounds modern.

Amazing what a carb can do. A buddy lent us his 1250cfm (1050) BLP 4500 Dominator for some 1/4 mile pulls at Orlando Speed World.

Video will be on RIPPER WRENCH Youtube.

She'll run well into the 9's n/a off the trailer. Bet it.

I think we can go 6.14. I don't foresee any problem, off the trailer.

3475 lbs loaded.

I'm hesitant to stall test the new converter on the transmission brake because it is an active stator converter, so I don't know much about it really.

The guy who owns this car drives it for dinner and to car shows, so it required an active stator torque converter to run cool enough to drive around on the street. Even so I think she'll go faster than 6.14 off the trailer first hit, low leave rpm.

It's definitely faster than my Nova.

I think we hit on a pretty decent 18cc piston pump gas combination.

We've already been down this road and you've had 6 years to find one faster... n/a 23 sbc 3200 lbs.

This is irrefutable evidence, you can't find one faster.

Six years and counting.
