That's mighty impressive. Did you have to change the configuration or did you just rebuild with stronger parts?
yes, I had PRL step deck the block and I swapped to custom Diamond pistons made specifically for the k24z7. We kept having clearance issues with other pistons, they kept hitting against the head. Also went with Arp 625+ rod bolts

we also made 1 test pass at a local track and went 10.8 @97 mph, we had to slam the brakes at the 1000ft to avoid getting kicked out hence the trap speed. This is a 9 second car easily

Why’s the speed seem so off? Shouldn’t a 10.8 equate to like 125-130mph trap speed?
I explained it on the post lol, I slammed the brakes at the 1000ft mark to reduce speed so that we wouldn't get kicked out for running too fast on the first pass.

Harry's car still has that title but I am positive this car will go low 9's once it has all the proper safety equipment and a cage.
