On the 'mildly' Cheap SS Monte Carlo chasing a 9.0___

You can order M/T drag tires through Walmart.com and they are showing up on time. They clearly have priority contracts over the usual scumbags.
Just ordered another set of Street R’s only because if it goes bad, then I can blame the guy from Central Canukistan

😉 😉

Northernregal I'm using the dipstick for the '08 Tahoe which is the oil pan I'm using as well. I did calibrate it when I put the motor in too.

Did you mark the bottom of the windage tray on the dipstick?
It’s a little over a quart to get in it with the motor off. So 7 or just a little more. Obviously with the motor running though 8 is below it.
 
We're you able to get any videos? 9 runs is alot!
last run :


5 or 6th run :



In the last run 3.5 psi and not much timing. It slow motion launches. It comes on pretty quick, just not a lot of traction lol.
 
Hopefully the new resolves some issues.

Surprised you went with S/S instead of R's at your power level. Do you plan to drive on them during DW?

And holy hell, you were still on MT ET Streets? Those things must be from the Obama administration lol!!! Havn't seen a car running on those for a while!

I tried to get Street R's in the spring and cancelled the order because they said it wouldn't be until at least July. I probably shouldn't have. But ET Street's were available so I bought them. That's what I was running, so they work. I ordered a set of R's and hopefully they are here by DW. My Street SS's from last year were bald, but still useable until I went to the no prep event and spun 1000 ft out - the track and crap on it shredded them. The guy that runs the no prep gig sends me messages constantly trying to get me to go, but I'm not wealthy enough to wreck a set of tires every time or every time I go. And I don't find that exciting. There has been at least two full spins and or wrecks every time he's held an event - no thanks.
