Sy 0383 low boost test pass

Loaded up and went to the local drag strip Friday afternoon. Dam humidity was so thick, you could cut it with a knife. Anyway, I got in a full 1/8 mile pass at 1 bar '14.7' psi. The truck ran great. Cooled her off and was fixing to make another run at higher boost but the starter wouldn't engage? Come to find out the 3 bolts that hold the motor to the bendix, 2 were missing in action and the other was about to fall out. Couldn't find the necessary replacements at the track so we loaded up and came home, which really didn't bother me as I bet I sweated out 10 lbs. It was to hot & humid for wrenching for me. Anyway, here is the video. Enjoy.

PS 60 ft time was 1.27 This would probably be about a 8.80 @ 155 or so.

Thanks guys and especially Mike as some of his high quality parts are what helps to make it possible. It's looking like this thing can go some 4.80's (1/8 mile) without pushing it to hard.

Mike

Nice pass Mike. Looking good man!!! It's always nice to see a beautiful Syclone that can run like that. Can't wait to see it when you turn it loose.
