Well l have most of the bugs worked out of the 85 engine I bought over the winter.
I took it up to my local dragstrip Music City Raceway which is 10 mins from my house to run the gamblers race and also test and tune night.
Here is my setup
85 stock engine purchased from a VMAX that was hit by a truck engine compression is 170 avg
Kerker 4-1 exhaust with comp baffle
Shinko 170-80-15 rear tire
My stage 7 setup carbs
Front end strapped down
Rider weight 227 lbs
Track altitude 990 FT above sea level
Temp 71
1 Time Trial
RT 492
60ft 1.626
330 4.531
et 6.968
mph 101.97
2nd time trial
RT 509
60ft 1.621
330ft 4.498
et 6.927
mph 101.23
3rd time trial
RT .514
60ft 1.617
330ft 4.499
et 6.927
mph 101.30
4th time trial
RT .531
60ft 1.612
330 4.476
et 6.915
mph 101.48
The MPH kept picking up along with the track as the night went on. I am satisfied I should have a VMAX that runs in the 10's without any problems. I will post some times when I put the NOS to it which will bring it in the 6.30 range with a MPH of around 112
Come Get ya Sum !!
