I love the E85....and so does my rotary. It really woke up my Corolla . The car is nothing special: 66mm/t4(22psi) T2 motor(street port), with a Holley HP 950. Yep...I'm a carb guy. Car gets high13/low14 cruise afr on a gas meter. 2450lbs with driver.

I finally got a good rearend so I decided to go to my local 1/8th track for testing. Here's a breakdown of my best timeslip.
60ft: 1.36
330ft: 4.18
1/8th: 6.34
1/8thmph: 112

Here's the vid.

HELL YEAH BRO!! Thats ******* badass.

I love how the starter was covering his face in the second pass!!!

Any underhood pics?

 

I'll see if I have any on my computer...if not I'll take some tomorrow.

 

looks good bro , good job looks like an electric chair

 

Nice!!!!

that thing is badd ***

Manny, there can only be one Electric chair and it's here in the Bronx

 

Awesome ride. That second pass was nice. What trans are you running? I like how the announcer said, "Wow", at the end of your run.

 

Hell yeah Bro , Nice launch toat the tires and awesome shifting .

 

very nice....

 

i love it carbs work beautiful when they r tuned right

 

I'm using the T2 trans, but hope to get the Doug Nash 5spd installed soon. I'm trying to get in the 5's.. hopefully the trans will put me there. I'm installing a 6pt roll bar now. The car was starting to buckle the right rear quarter panel. the car is very unpredictable the fist 300ft....so I'm hoping the rollbar and frame connectors will make the car more consistent. It runs the same mph every pass; but it's hard to go quicker than 6.50.

Can some of the Gurus chime in with some go fast tips.

 

If you need any help with the Doug Nash swap drop me a line.

 

Yeah the carb works really well and it's cheap. The switch to E85 didn't cost me anything either.

Congrats bro, nice ride and awesome 60ft. What kind of suspension is in the front, I noticed it's very soft.

Anthony

 

Front suspension is stock. I'm thinking about lowering the front for more travel. My 60ft is normally in the low 1.40's but the 1.36 is my best.

 

Anything else done to that Holley HP 950? Or is it basically right off the shelf. I love this setup seems very simple and the fact that you don't see too many Holley carb setups makes it very unique.

 

Idle circuits and main circuits reworked, dual power valves and bigger needle and seats.

 

Who did the carb work if you don't mind me asking?

 

I did the carb work. I'm heavily into blow-through carbs. Rotary and pistons. I also have a turbo Camaro(blow-through).
Here's a vid from 2 years ago.

ATTN-DocHoliday. Blow trough turbo!!!!!!!! DO IT!!!

Thanks for the info!

 

all i can say is sick loving the set up yo , good job i also love carbs but havent been really atracted to a blow set ups till now

 

i will love to have every carb hater on this forum to see how well this setup runs,everytime that somebody brings carbs to a conversation somebody get all pissed of and start the OH they are crap,dinosaurs,they wont work but here you have a BUCKET that will kill a lot of those haters cars,Good luck with the project bro.

 

do you still have the lift springs setup or do you change it to ladder bars?IF you do get a roll bar/cage that might help stiffing up the body a little.

 

Yeah...I made sure I posted a video to keep from getting attacked by the non-believers.

 

I'm still stock suspension....just adding a 8pt bar with frame connectors.
