Lost in the Semi's this weekend... Car was deadly, but a .005 red is no good! Powerglide still doing it's job. Best money I ever spent. There is a photographer out at the track that loves this car, keeps getting photos everytime out and I sure ain't complaining!

Congrats! Ya those close reds are a bitch. .005 green sure is lots more fun.

Took it out to test n tune on Sunday. Put a delay box in the car so I could run electronics. Alot of tracks down here run footbrake and electronics... and if I'm gonna kick some of that dragster a$$, then we gotta be on the same level! Time ticket is the 3rd pass setting up the box.

Ran at Cottonwood last weekend... What a race! Second round... And here I thought a .011 pack was worth something lol I'm car number 350.
moparmarkk - Planning on being at Holt not this weekend but next, messaged you.

I'll take an .011 package for every run I make forever. It would make me the richest bracket racer in the world.

Made it back in the winner's circle this weekend! Never ran a 7.0 index with a .500 pro tree before... But DAMN was it fun!
Powerglide is still doing its job, never ever gets over 160 degrees. I'mma believer!

Hey guys, haven't posted in quite some time. Coronet has been doing great, no issues to speak of with about 100 passes this year on everything. Gonna be at a few more races this year then take it all apart for inspection. Started looking at possibly getting some aluminum heads vs getting my 452's rebuilt. Sure wouldn't hurt to get some weight off the front end.
Also as far as Powerglide reliability is going. Haven't had a single issue with it, and the trans never ever goes over 160 degrees. (I do have a huge cooler in it) This was from the last time I was out. 3 passes before it started raining, switching lanes as well, very happy with those 60 foot times.

Glad that the Glide is working out well, I wouldn't have expected that, but what the hell do I know. Good lights & consistent car are the key. You sure seem to achieved that. Good luck!

Last time I had it on the scales it was 3550 with me in it. Should be somewhere closer to 3450 now.
Have you considered the Trick flow heads?
