Sounds awesome, what rear gear? do most run stiffer gears for the 1/8th?
Nice set up, thanks for posting.

thanks, yes that's Dave Anthony he has the fastest railer in eastern Canada. had the camera on the gauges seems it only hitting 14psi with the 1/1 drive , I have a 30 tooth pulley but that should put me at 19psi if everything stays together, I want to go quicker but don`t want the motor to be set on kill every run. https://youtu.be/f8aUg_tYreM

another season over, never got my 6.9et, ran some 7.0s ets. had earily season converter troubles vibrating the car so bad that crank bolt would spit out. last couple of weekends rings started failing pressurizing base and pushing oil out front and rear gaskets, so went back to 10 psi pulley but got to run with full mix methanol 24degs timing and ran 7.13et@94mph. my best with 10psi before was 7.28et@92mph. need to fresh`in up the engine over the winter and hope for 6`s next spring. https://youtu.be/yWI1naEOU3M
