Our 468ci BIG BLOCK Camaro Has NEVER Run This Good! Track Testing Hughes Converter!
Finally... we have made some big progress at the track with our 1970 Chevy Camaro with a 468ci big block Chevy and power glide transmission. If you've followed the channel for the last year or so, you know that we've had issues with getting the correct converter made for the car. Thanks to Hughes Performance it looks like the 3rd torque converter is the charm! Although we have quite a bit more to dial in with the car and it has plenty of room to be turned up this test session at the drag strip was by far the most progress we've made with the car. Watch and enjoy!

In this video we made the trip south to the Good Times Drag Strip in Winnemucca, NV for the NNRA's August race. This is a super fun 1/8th mile track out in the middle of the desert but the facility is really nice! My supercharged 383ci small block Chevy Nova was deadly consistent all weekend long despite the challenging drag racing conditions. We had everything from cool night air, to 8,000 fee...

It's time to go to work... I've been in a mid season slump ever since my biggest win to date in June. Since then I've had a broken motor in my 1971 Chevy Nova and issues with a transmission in my dad's 1970 Camaro which has seemed to be my backup car this year. Now that everything is back and running we need to stack up some round wins! Some TIGHT racing kept me from going on in this video but ...

Nice Race Car!!🏁😊❤
Luckily the camera wasn't sucked in the compressor!😮
3.88
4.25 seconds on an eigth of a mile track, looked like to me, lol. I love the way that beast's engine sounds!!!
🟢4.89 ? 🏁
3.64
4.78
Nothing sounds better! Without earplugs.
Just cranked mine today,it sounds similar
I just bought a tbs 671 , whats the push button just above the sight glass ?
It’s just a valve to release the pressure inside the gear case!
@@PLANBRACING how often should I push it ?
@@scottweedin7570 whenever you have the hood open give it a press! No need to do it super often. Make sure you have a little rag or towel when you press it. Sometimes you’ll get a little gear oil that comes out too.
@@PLANBRACING ok , thanks appreciate it
Why I bought a dragy
Nice
My backyard , 25 miles away
That Nova has some fresh ass torque.❤❤
Where are you racing ? Mexico ?
This was earlier in the summer from Nevada!
@@PLANBRACING gotcha an actual track or something set up temporary
Here is your answer racing is almost never affordable
🤩
Did you have to go with a small base circle cam to clear the rods?
The cam isn’t very aggressive and is an off the shelf Comp Cam. It was recommended for my set up but I didn’t have clearing the rods in mind at all actually!
I'm always impressed by those that can build it themselves! Unfortunately I don't have the tools or the knowledge to do it myself. I wish I had had AT LEAST started out with an inexpensive rolling chassis instead of buying an expensive car, then spending even MORE money on it to race it.
Not sure if your all out race , I run the outlaws class where I live, I have an S-10 , I'm running a sbc 388 on methanol, power glide trans, moser ford 9 inch rear with 433 gearing , 29 inch tires , in the 1/4 mile 10 flat 134 mph. 1/8 mile 6.80s
Mainly bracket racing the car. That’s some good times! I’m on E85 now and have been going 10.3’s in the 1/4 and 6.40’s in the 1/8 at elevation. We race at about 5000ft of air most summer. Went down to sea level and was able to get into the 10.16’s in the 1/4!
The 0010 blocks have more nickel mixed in the cast iron so it makes a stronger block,
Was this Pacific Raceway?
Yes it was!
Ahhh my home track. Was out of town and missed seeing your car.
I took my 72 Nova out yesterday for the first time this year just to test and tune. I run 10.9s. I rolled into the tech line and someone informed me to just turn in my tech card at the front gate and they have not been teching cars all season. Wtf? Lol
Some places are definitely more strict than others that’s for sure. There’s a rural Nevada track that didn’t tech my car this year because they remembered me being there last year lol. Not a big deal to me because I feel confident that my car will pass tech at any track but I’d hate to see someone get hurt because they cut corners.
Great video
What size Carburetor is it? Sounds good and very crisp 👌 ❤
950cfm gas carb!
@PLANBRACING Sounds Good! Thanks For Responding!👍🏻
I think the best way to get into drag racing is for people to put their ego down And just buy a car that's already built. I see them sold for $0.30 on the dollar quite often. And that's not counting all the labor somebody put into it.
I run the same cubic inch in my nova with a tighter converter and 4800 to 5200 is my sweet spot for the index class. Usually 1.27 to 1.30 60ft. Hopefully you get her figured out and dialed in man!
Good to know! Thank you much 🙌🏻
Nice
Concerning your title, proper English would be "has NEVER run" or simply "NEVER ran." Everyone needs a grammar Nazi in their life.
Definitely heading in the right direction. But man, only four years out of a yellow top? They sure dont make them like they used to. At that point it's almost not worth spending the money on one, let alone two.
Neither of us currently have an alternator on our cars so I’m sure that’s a bit harder on the batteries but yeah been getting about 4 years out of them 😅
And also will you have merch with you ?
I assume that you are going to be at the classic ?
Not this year unfortunately 😭
@PLANBRACING Gotcha. Well I'm sure that we will see you somewhere
The video I’ve been waiting for all week 😁
We shoulda had a camera in your car on Sunday 🔥
@@PLANBRACING I’ve gotta be honest I didn’t even have a reaction my shoulders just dropped and I was in complete shock. Was an awesome day though!
Love your videos. I hope the youtube takes off.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Come on
Let’s go
Brother
Awesome
Kool
Your hot rod is sounding sweet
Nice
I am sure you noticed but you can see on your second pass the air flow over the carb was pulling fuel out of the air bleeds. I'm sure with the hood on you don't have this problem just thought id mention it.
Yeah definitely! I always run a hood (and now even a filter). This was before I had my FuelTech 450 screen in the car so I had to use a manual gauge to get a fuel pressure reading!
Best driver I seen on the internet.
