Damn it was hot last night

[RedHeartbeat]

Went to DentonDragway again last night and the best time I could run all night was only 9.46

I got to pound the crap out of tons of imports but got beat by a 350ZX.

Ran a CHARGER R/T 5.7L Hemi and won 2 of 4 but lost one of them because my transmission shifted into 2nd gear while I was stalling it up and I ran the whole 1/8 mile in 2nd gear Good news was it only cost me .5 seconds on my ET.

Got beat badly by a Volvo with an LT1 camaro engine under the hood. Got beat even worse by a 56 chevy two door post with a 532" Merlin big block. Can you imagine the feeling when you get beat by a full 3 seconds in only 1/8 mile? I shot the bull with him most of the night, he was a fellow Okie, nice older feller. When you're almost 42 there are less and less people you can call an older feller every year.

Damn Greg, you're gonna have to kick it up a notch so we can put motoxlifer in his place. LOL He's got us with the weight difference though. I think it would be funny to have an ext cab with A/C take his numbers. LMAO!!

[TXcrew]

nice!!

[motoxlifer]

Hey Nitrous you've gotta go to the strip so you can see if your faster or not first. Yall better do somerhing quick cuz I ain't gonna go any slower... till I break somethin. Ha! Ha! Hey Red did you remove your headlight? I don't know if it helped me or not but it couldn't have hurt in this hot ass weather

[RedHeartbeat]

I've got to get some cool air into the engine. With the tranny cooler, a/c cooler and radiator there is a lot of hot air going into my intake. It gets so hot you don't want to hang onto the aluminum intake hose for too long.

glad ya had fun RED, BTW , was that one of the volvos from the JTR swap manual??

[RedHeartbeat]

Probably not. He said he just completed the swap about 4 months ago.

[motoxlifer]

What's an A/C cooler? Is that a condenser? I still have my condenser too and a tranny cooler. It looks like your air filter is right where mine is. There is a big hole behind the headlight (I'm sure u already know) that will let fresh air flow right onto your air filter. I'm gonna box mine in eventually.

[RedHeartbeat]

Yeah, I am going to get some aluminum sheet and box in that area for a cold air system. The headlight is a pain to remove since you have to pull the grill and four bolts to get the unit out. I don't think that little 3" hole is going to help much in mine. I plan on pulling air from the road, maybe through the fender well with some sort of air diversion.

Yeah, the a/c cooler is the condenser.
