little progress
it's starting to shape up.

got my nhra license ....check

got cage certified to 8.60 .....check

made it off the dyno alive. lol .....check

got four 1/4 mile passes in. had issues so not quiet a full 1/8 pass . just too fat up top when nozzles kick in. tried pulling fuel each pass but just not enough yet.

best pass was :

1.286
5.68 1/8.
107mph
9.6 @ 105
pull was to between 330 and 1/8 mile


long time build but it's finally all coming together. Big thanks to all those involved in helping me. you know who you are ..
