This should be a interesting thread,how about pics with combs ?

 

1991 Coupe: 3220 race weight.

~Dart Iron Eagle Based 327 CI 8.5:1
~Untouched TFS Heads
~Custom Bob Kurgan cam
~TH400 w/ very wrong TS 9" convertor
~YSi 3.00/8.00 24 psig at 6600 RPM
~A9L with SCT chip tuned by Bob Kurgan

Went 9.21@149 with a 1.38 short time. Converter was way wrong. The car pretty much picked up no mph in top gear as I was driving through it badly. Should have kept it but got pissed and sold it all. Live and learn.

 

that car was a freak of nature LOL... and that stupid cut rollcage bar always cut me LOL

 

I cant believe theres only one fast ysi on this site thats been to the track !

 

There should be about a billion 9 sec passes as that is nothing for a ysi.

 

Very true. Every YSI I have done runs 9's or better. This one does 9's on pump gas 93.

 

It probibly takes about a 550hp motor N/a to even be able to use a YSI so I would think every car with one would run 9's with any sort of traction!

 

What about S trim combos running 9's?

 

There is a guy on here that goes by spider racing. He drives 2+ hours to the track, runs 9.40's and drives home. Runs an s-trim, just upgraded to an si.

 

Very Cool!!!

Here is a VERY crappy video from my phone. Not bad for a drag radial and not having a trans brake.....I wish I could say one of my cams was in it, but.....its not....

 

I happen to know a car with one of your cam's in it and a little S trim that "might" come close to that (Gator)

 

how about si's or equivalant in the 8's?????

 

This is a street car, no cage or even frame connector's, stock suspension. It's a 364ci 8.2, TFS TW's, custom Kurgan cam, FASTxfi, setup and tuned by Kurgan motorsport's. Made 849rwhp on Bob's dyno about 4 weeks ago and this video was last Sat which was the first time at the track with the car with my cousin driving. It only made 2 passes before the 4 year old C4 started slipping in hi gear but ran a 5.85 on both passes. It would have been a 5.70 or faster on the second pass but he let off before the 1/8 because the tranny was slipping.

It's the red car in the left lane...........

 

Great thread!

 

Keep them coming

 

That Spider Racing is flying with aod...

 

nice pass with the red coupe...

 

Thanks. I forgot to add these passes were on the foot brake also, so there's alot left in it for sure.

 

I probably have the slowest combo in this thread, but what the hell.
1988 mustang coupe
Vortech YSi
327, r-block
emissions legal twisted wedge heads, bowl work only.
tFS #2 cam
holley systemax intake
70 mm t-body
1 5/8 short tube headers and hpipe
good fuel system
c-4
3.55 gears,
3,350 pounds and run on et street radials
Full interior, stock fan and water pump, power steering and brakes.
9.80@138.5 on my second pass of true street.

 

That car is hauling the mail for sure with those off the shelf parts!!
Whats your suspension?
What are you using to control the EFI? Stock computer A9L/chip or standalone?

 

Dart Block 331
Stage 1 Twisted Wedge Heads
B-451 Cam
Holley Intake
Long Tubes
3" Exhaust
C-4
3.55 gears
PMS
8.7@155

 

Do's your combo have the alky kit ?

 

this thread gives me hope. mine is almost done!

 

I went 9.003 with a Kurgan tuned 347 and sct chip.

Went 8.89 at 136 coasting across the line with the BS3 tuned by Kurgan, car had easy 8.50's in it but we have since changed directions.

IMO if ya wanna go fast with a YSI then ya better call Kurgan, he is a genious on these setups!

 

I agree, cool thread. My YSi goes on in the next week or two.

I wonder what my little hatch would run with drag suspension on the Si trim. Gotta be good for 9's with 700rwhp/ 649 rwtq... Although it IS a 5 speed.

 

700whp, 5 speed, good suspension, and good driving will get you deep into the 9's

 

For me I am faster with 640rwhp(9.75/142) but 711rwhp my best is 9.8@143 with 1.7 60fts.

 

9.01 @ 152 here. 347 Dart block, Vic Jr Heads, Holley Intake, Freezy Cam, Performance Automatic Supercomp C4, Mr Freeze Meth Kit, etc.

 

So, how old are those numbers in your sig?

 

You mean the short chubby guy running around like a Lunatic lol :idunno::idunno:

 

Hey Dan! He makes it look easy! But even the best cam, heads and more cubes that would be very hard to even equal! Dan is a Pro!

nice....congrats

 

Finally Getting mine to the track for some testing--

Been to the track 4 times- 2 passes ea on the 1st 3 times because i was always breaking something! Have broke old blower brace bolt, starter, new powerglide etc-- has sucked....

Yesterday finally got some decent hits- its getting there but still way off.. Car rides in the converter for 2.3sec in low gear- then shift to high gear and it gains 200-300rpm for 2 seconds.. gonna have to get converter fixed... The tune has changed since we got the trans fixed- its lean in low gear until 6900 then goes pure fat- XFi is correcting 25%- bout got my VE table maxed- in high gear its getting closer- its taking a little fuel but good on AF--- this converter is putting a hell of a load on the motor and wanting a ton of fuel now!!!????????

On 275 mickey t. Drag raidal-- will be putting the new MT DR on soon!!

2.95/8.00 pulleys Serp w/ Kurgan Brace- with new brace i havent had to touch my belt- No slip!! Thanks BOB!!!!

No Innercooler, NO Meth, NO E85- on C16 w 300ish Discharge Temps
3200' alt. DA is 6000'+
60' 1.36
330- 3.88
1/8th 6.02 only 113-114mph- converter is killing me!
Weighs- 3300 w/ me in it!

Made 1054hp/858 tq with fuel problems on an engine dyno

Goes 10.2 @94mph when i let out at 1/8th mile and coast through 1/4..

The car needs to run 5.80 to compete in the local class but i think it has a 60-70 with the right converter- i also hava 2.85 and 2.75 pulley i can drop down to..


Heres an incar of one pass- will have some out car up soon..
