Cummins Satellite

[draginmopars]

It really jacks up hard in the rear while staging, how did it hook with the gas motor, what kinda 60 ft's.

1.51
when I wasn't breaking things
Put the 540 to put into my 72 Dart

I think the Cummins is killing the springs

I even added another leaf at the bottom of the stack( which is a flat leaf, from the front spring of a 4 wheel drive)
am looking into Caltrac, Have them on the 72 dart

just not sure about running a mono spring, like the dart

I'm not sure why the Satellite, is doing it now.
back then, I was also using a trans brake
going to put the go pro under there to see.
looks like I need new springs

I have the same type of springs, on my white Dart
It never raises the rear, even when leaving the line. > 1.46 60ft

I think your pinion angle is way off, like in the wrong direction that rise in the rear while staging is not a good thing. I'd look into doing ladder bars or a simple 4 link, if your going to stay with leafs, maybe look into a soft drag set and pay close attention to getting pinion angle right. Start with say 3 to 5 degrees DOWN

latest report:

made some crazy long spring clamps>>>lol
installed a smaller tire MT325 x 50-15
installed a tach > Stalls at 1100 rpm
I don't know if the tack is correct rpm, though, the convertor being out of a Airport Tug seems correct.
I think I'll swap convertor after I get the injectors sorted out
Max rpm at the strip shows 3500

new time:
8.8231
60 ft 1.8782
76.94 mph

Next is to pull an injector
see what they are
A friend sold them to me, at the time didn't look at the #'s

 

[draginmopars]

well found out what the injector #'s are...
0432131837
Adds 28HP & 56LB/FT TQ to non-intercooled engines

Can someone PLEASE get me in the right direction
for the right injectors, need MORE fuel

Thanks

I'd go 5x18s or 6x16s if you can handle some idle haze

Let us know what you go with......400+rwhp isn't too hard esp. with w/m or bottle. Should make that sucker go pretty good!!
