nice slip Kjell 109 in the 1/8 ain't to shabby either

 

Thanks Carl the 109 is Ok, but not so ok with the top speed. I think we can improve ?! The tune is well within safe, as it still fat and 27 degrees static on the mag. But something that cofuses me is the MAP????

Kool Kjell, maybe I need the book "Norwegian for Dummies"...........

 

I think you might want to invest in a new tach. Yours has the needle bouncing all over the place with no relation to engine speed.

But great run never the less.

 

We actually never watch Tach just run till valves float, then shift huh Kjell.......

by the way what a beautiful venue to run at!!!!

 

Yes the tach is not working right But I'm a little stubborn, since I really like the Sun Blue-line tach's. I bought tis from the Hamb, and It's a NOS half sweep. I think the ideal solution would be a new bottom on the mag and run a Moroso mech. one. I'll settle for the shiftlight for now. It used to work, but as seen in the video, it flashes up from the start

OK, I didn't understand a word.....I did see some guys having lots of fun! That's a nice sounding flattie. I know you probably posted it earlier but what does your dragster weigh? Cheers, Allan

 

So you don't understand Norwegian??? And YES we have a lot of fun, especially the next races at Kjula Dragway I don't have the exact weight of the Sidewinder, but around 1280 Lbs

Heavier or lighter Carl?

well mine is 130wb no blower and weighs 1356 without my fat ass in there

 

You have probably right Carl I'll need to weigh it in. As I'm now hired to a Racing/speed shop, no problem. I might put the Sidewinder on the Dyno too
Oh! We found out why the presssure guage showed 28 psi A small backfire when i lifted the throttle at the finnish-line Need to put a shim in the Idle bypass valve to make it stiffer. Should solve that Got a 20 psi reading at a 10.02 sec run, and that is what we expected

lKool Kjell , what was your speed at 10.02? and what type of stop/check valve do you use for the press gauge?

 

208 km/t. I think I got the memory-valve from Good Vibrations
Have taken it appart a couple of times for cleaning.

10.02 @ 129.24 man thas just what I'm lookin for!!

 

You will get there with lower boost Carl We probably had been there with last years boost of 14-15 psi But nooo, we need more power I really do't know where 20 psi will get us? but we hope to see low 9 sec ET's

Thanks Guys, sorry no New record on the 1320;/ But we got a decent 1/8 mile run. 6.1 sec 113 mph.before the blower snout axle snapped, and no pressure on the last 1/8th mile, rolled over the line for a 10.2 sec ET 90 mph.
