Once the water stays out and the FIRE stays in the combustion chambers. 11.42 is the number.

The Demon is ready to go scream-on down Atco's 1320 this Saturday. Valves are lashed and the body is waxed. See everyone this Saturday at Atco, NJ for what may be the last race of the 2012 season.

I'm excited to report the Demon has exceeded all of my expectations. At the SuperCar Fall Finale the Demon rocketed to a 11.875 E/T @ 118MPH with a 1.91 60ft. With more seat time in 2013 I expect to get close to the Small block record.

Had time last night to take apart the 340 in the Demon. Damage was limited to a bent valve due to valve spring float. Valve springs used were not rated for 7000 plus RPMS. Easy fix should be back together for next weekend. Note to driver Demon makes enough power at 5800 RPM's no need to go above 6000. :aok
