Hi everyone, I was off line for a few months I'm back. IF anyone remembers I was in the process of re-building my SBC after the fuel pump lobe wipped out, taking out 2 pistons because of the lean condition graemlins/clonk.gif

We finally got the Elcamino to the track. It went somthing like this.

60' 1.691
330' 4.952
1/8 7.706
MPH 88.85
1000' 10.142
1320 12.160
MHP 109.63

The car is a 1986 Elcamino
SBC 350
TH-350 transmission
3500 stall converter (left at 2500 rpm)
9 inch diff 3.70:1

The motor
standard bore and stroke 350
11.8:1
Fast burn heads ported by flow technics (best guy I've met in the hot rod bussiness)
2.055intake
1.6 exhaust
54 cc combustion chamber
UD hyd roller
Advertised 292/302
.050 238/248
Lift .565/.565 W/1.6's
108 LSA
102 ICL

Holley DP race preped
Aeromotive hot rod pump

Comp engineering sump
1/2 fuel line from sump and fuel pump
3/8 to each fuel bowl

I never thought I'd be able to hit the low 12's with street gears. I'm planning on trying 4.30:1 gear ratio.

Thanks to every one on Team Chevelle for helping me though this. I'd also like to thank Pat Kelley (my uncle) who sent lots of emails explaining things on how how to re-build the engine. Couldn't have done it with out him. smile.gif

EXCELLENT! While the 4.30s will add, looks good with the 390s. graemlins/thumbsup.gif

Very impressive....especially for first time out. Will the 11.8 and fast burn combo let you run it on pump gas?

I've always noticed Pat Kelley and Aaron Kelley on the boards, but never had any idea that the two of you were related.

Pat's DCR calculator and other items on his website have contributed greatly to my success with an efficient yet (relatively) powerful engine. I definitely couldn't have done it without Pat's resources.

19 chevelle 71 I run pump gas, the guy who ported my heads said the combustion chamber on the fast burns are very effcient thus letting me run pump gas.

Yep Pat is my uncle I've know him 26 years.

Hey, Aaron, that is an excellent time graemlins/hurray.gif . More tuning and you'll have 11's, if you want it. I don't deserve any credit for the powerful motor you built. You did this on your own. I'm very proud of you. Congrats!! Have a cold one on me graemlins/beers.gif .

Have you weighted the car? And what's the rpm at the finish line?

I gotta be impressed with a small block going
faster than I am.
Nice job!
