    I'll do my best on the vid. The cameramom failed saturday. lol As for the bottle vrs boost I like the boost much more right now. I dont have to run it as hard, it pulls alot harder but smoother! That pass that I ran never saw full throttle so its a nasty MOFO compared to my last motor. It was just a 451 with a 200 shot. It launched harder so far but this thing just pulls and pulls. Its gonna be fun!

    Well got some new fancy super heavy duty pushrods from Smith brothers! I highly recommend them if you guys need some. I ordered them Monday at 10 am and they were shipped by 3pm monday! Had them in and running wednsday night! They werent cheap though. I have pretty high open spring pressure at 598 pounds. Add the boost and they said must go bigger so they are 3/8 x .145 wall 4130 9.437 long.. Gonna try the 1/8th again tomorrow! I'll try for some video!

    Well its going well. Today ran a 6.10 at 118 smoking the tires, short shifting and a light launch. I have a oil leak I need to fix I think its the girdle leaking so the motor will have to come out. Its still pushing oil through the turbo as well. I have it restricted down quite a bit. Maybe my drain isnt returning fast enough. I plan on trying to reroute it. So I made 4 passes today for my 20 bucks. :D The first was a squirly tire fryer and the 3 was a tire killer too till the intercooler tube blew off the turbo. I have a feeling the intercooler I have has a bit of restriction because it always blows a pipe off before the IC.. anyways heres run 2 the only decent one still spinnin!
    This is at 7 psi.. :burnout:

    To be honest I have no idea. I was thinking 10-12 on pump gas if that's safe then I don't know how high I can go on race gas. Right now I plan staying on pump for awhile at least until I get my Dana built. Poor little 8 3/4 is crying for mercy! Lol

    Cool I'll check my local store. Looks like everything is leaking. Pan, girdle, main and cracked dipstick tube.

    Its actually weatherstriping glue. In a black box usually with all the silicone product at your local parts house. larger beads takes longer to dry so you have a little time. Small amounts dries FAST!

    I personally have used it on areas with gaskets but he said it works for flush surfaces too. We'll see. The girdle on his is leak free.

    Ultra gray is pretty bad ass too.Imports use to to seal cases together.They do not use gaskets.I have a smal hole in my oil pan and i smeared it on and it has been like that for over a year.My 440 in my 66 Dart is sealed with it and it does not leak a drop.Been together for four years.
    I swear by it.
