Back from the track w\ported eaton...

I just got back from the track (1\8th mile)
I looked up my times from last fall with similiar times for a comparison.
It was right at 50deg. which is exactly the temp I had on the times from last fall.

I did run a best of 8.10. My previouse best was 8.12. I will admit I was hoping for high 7's. Is it possible to get high 7's on stock F1's?


Ok, the times:
This was on stock F1's no traction bars and pump 93oct gas. The only diff. is the ported eaton and the "last fall" times I had the lakewoods on. I did get some axle wrap so next time out I will put on the lakewoods.


TODAY (ported eaton): 8.10 @86.89 1.861 60'
Last fall (stock eaton) 8.12 @86.18 1.85 60'

TODAY (ported eaton) 8.22 @87.05 1.95 60'
Last fall (stock eaton) 8.21 @86.20 1.90 60'


TODAY (ported eaton) 8.16 @86.53 1.89 60'
Last fall (stock eaton) 8.15 @85.73 1.82 60'


These are the results. What do you all think?

Good numbers man...From what I hear though, the ported eaton really shows it's stuff after the 1/8 mile with a strong top end charge...So get that truck to the 1320 and really see what it'll do...

yea, if u look at your numbers the ported eaton seems to be making a lot more high end power since, hence higher mph.
