New Best ET's

[Mike Gaines]

10.572, 10.574 and 10.575 all last weekend at Famoso.
2 of the 3 were also over 126mph.
These runs were with between 3600 and 3900' Adjusted Altitude and over 90 degree temps.
I believe the better ET's were due the installation of my new Dougs D452 2" Headers with 3.5" collectors. My old headers were Hooker 1.75" tubes with 3" collectors
Really proud of my Indy EZ standard port (NON MAX WEDGE HEADS) that only flow 290 CFM. Looking forward to the day when I can get the heads Ported to Max Wedge and flowing around 355 CFM...all reports says that my 3700lb sled will then go into the high 10.30's.

We'd be heads up now. I ran a 10.57 followed by 2 .59's after that.
Good job man.

That's great to see Mike.
You are going to be surprised when you Max Wedge port those heads.
My 3750 lb Belvedere ran 10.00 consistently and a best of 9.88 in cool "good" air. EZ's with a single plane Indy intake with a Dominator.

Great results Mike. When you get to port those heads out to Max Wedge size you'll really be happy.
