Where are all these pictures? We have run 3 divisionals this year with the I/PS car. I don't know the name of the Div 2 IHRA pic guy but he has great shots of the car @ immokalee maybe he could hook something up.

I built car 96 or 97 was auto and could drive ran around 9.20 first time out if remember correctly index was 9.10 then,had 10'' street conv. had coan build me 8'' went 8.80's with converter change,and driving on street was over.
Have kept working on it ever since got stuck in 8.50's for awhile then went back to 8.60's 8.70's for awhile then went to 8.30's.

Set my first record @ Farmington 1999,Bobby Butler had set @ 8.65,I set to 8.52,then he set it a month or two later to around 8.27 was 1/2 lbs w/breaks then we were K/PSA Don Hayward's mustang,held several record for several years,and one of the Mc Gee twins held it w/their 402 chevlle wagon then took me till 2010 to set my second,stood for 2 years reset last year and set E/PS also then set D/PS this year.
If I left any of K/PSA F/PS record holders between 1999-2013 it was'nt intentional,I don't want anyone to be left out.
E/PS is natural class for my car can move up or down one class,F is only one I can get close to min. weight,so I like to run F/PS.

Have been working on engine for K/S,don't know when I'll get done,and not sure if going to put in the silver car,it works good as is,I hate to mess up a good car,I have red malibu that I ran in V/S from 1989-1991 sold rolling and got back 16 years later,don't know if will put pure stock combo in red car or put K/S combo in it,I would also like to get my V/S combo out again also,229(3.8) chevy

Thanks ALMACK - Took pure stocker out last week and finally managed a 8.96 @ 4000 ft and still have not had valve covers off yet with 167K Got down to 5 cars in the 1000$ no box but it was 2 a.m. and the dew really killed me!!! 9.12 on a 9.02 flat out. Maybe it's getting tired LOL

You're welcome Daran.

You're car kind of sounds like mine.
I bought it off a car lot in Nov. 2010 with 180K miles.
I have never taken a peek under the valve covers because the engine runs so good.
All I did was put 4.56 gears in it and an AODE shift kit. (well worth the time and money)
Still has the stock toque convertor and heavy D.O.T. street tires.


Barely ran the I/PS index @ London 2012 at 1,400 ft.(Bottom pic)
Ran 14.30's at Bowling Green Oct 2012 (top pic)

Lots of room for improvement for the car.
