Hey Bean, triplenickel comes from this car. Yeah Adam, got a couple pretty decent 1/4 mile tracks around here. One runs an IHRA national(Mardi Gras Nationals) & divisional race & the other is home to the NHRA Jegs Cajun Sportsnationals. Both run a quick 16 program with quite a few 6 sec. cars there regularly.

Thanks, Most of the time I race at Mt Park Dragway in Clay City Ky. My fastest pass so far is 6.395 @ 105.36. I am hoping to it will pick up a little when I change to E85.

It will, about 1.5 to 2.0 tenths in the 1/8th and about the same for MPH, you will gain most of it in 60' and it will run about 20* cooler and it only uses 25 to 30 % more fuel and the kicker is its less than regular unleaded.

LOL!! I wish. When I bought the BB I didn't get the valve covers with it. A friend gave those to me he said I needed something fast under the hood. Now 3 years later if I get a tenth and a half when I go green I will be right there with him. So I'm hoping for .2!!
