phoonTy said:At Nats '06 it did 10.03, with the wrong cam (i think) popping like an Orville Redenbacher pop corn maker... I'm guessing way below 11's.![]()
Jer said:Yeah, he had an even fire cam in an odd fire engine and it STILL made around 1,200hp at the pavement. I can't wait to see what this thing is fully capable of. That low 10sec pass was peddling it most of the way too.

I'd have to agree there......an odd fire engine wouldn't start with and even fire cam in place no matter what. I thought I heard he had some bad valve springs?Nova67ss said:HOW IS THIS POSSIBLY?????
not runninga a even cam in a odd fire engine, but without breaking parts???
and makin these nrs??1200???

I think he'll run in the 9's this time seeing that he did run a 10 a last time with some serious high boost tuning issues and running race cars at over a mile high in altitude takes a little more effort when compared to sea level, but it sounds like John has got that taken care of in the video.

oh i am planning it as we type. i will prob trailer my truck up so i can race it without worry
BrownDawg71 said:Well,,just to set everything straight,the story has got twisted around a bit. Before with the old cam it made 1124 hp to the crank,,not to the ground. And what parts are there to break? All its goin to do is bend a valve,,break a valve,,crack a piston. And when it was pulled apart,,yes,,the valves were taggin every piston on the passenger side,not enough to bend them,just enough to leave a little evidence.
BrownDawg71 said:Well,,half the motor was running great. Until all the valve springs turned to silly putty. So, needless to say,,it ought to be a bit quicker this time around. I'd say 10.03 on 3 cylinders and a single turbo is pretty decent,,,wonder what it will run on 6 with twins!
