CONGRATULATIONS, ROGER!!

So what do you think happened - was it just better air or better traction or did you make a change(s) to your car to get the improvement performance?

Thanks all! .030 Hard Bloked 4bolt main block, internally ballanced stock stroke cast crank, Eagle H-beam rods, JE domed pistons, Ultradyde roller cam 270/[email protected] duration .682 lift, closed chamber 4V heads with high port exhaust plates, Strip Dominater intake, 950HP, JPT FullRoller C4 with 8in converter, trans brake, 4.86 gear with 28X10 slicks.
Had the heads off this winter, put on fresh springs, unshrouded the valves in the chambers a little, switched from a 850 to the 950HP, also put on a crankcase evacuation system (header type) Think it has some left in engine tuning, and alot left in suspension tuning, hoping for low 10s eventially!
