Mid 10's! with his updated combination! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: bbbenny and Plowman do a day of tuning
 

I beleive the car has mid 10 potential, but as you mentioned before the fuel line will need to be upgraded and that fast without a cage can cause a lot of flex in the car. On second thought I'm not sure I wanna wish that on ol' Benny.

The tracks probably won't let him run that fast without a cage. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Better get the spray guns and black paint ready for the roll cage!

I'm assuming you guys mean a "bar" and not a full blown "cage", which only comes into play at 9.99/135?

Also, what size is the fuel line? Granted, he's running a pair of carbs, but their are cars in the FAST class running 10s/130+ with "stock" fuel line, and the Hemis are doing it with multiple carbs...? Has the car shown any fuel issues so far??

Re: bbbenny and Plowman do a day of tuning
 

Yeah, Plowman corrected me on the bar vs cage thing. I meant a bar would be nice.

Thanks for posting about this Rob. I trust you know how to overcome some of the limitations people can experience with 3/8th fuel line. I'm very open to any comments your suggestions you have.

I don't know much about FAST, but do they use electric fuel pumps in discrete locations? Benny has an Edelbrock electric pump right now. I beleive they were going to increase the fuel pressure to around 9 or 10 psi. If they see the fuel pressure dropping during a pass, I guess they will adjust the pressure up around 13 psi?

I'm not sure if anyone knows what fuel pressure was looking like during a pass, so I don't want to speculate too much, but I am loking forward to thoughts on building a 10 second fuel system with 3/8th line!

Gee maybe we should've left the roll cage in. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif
