Bone stock SOHC time

Post by chipdogg » Sun Sep 16, 2007 11:07 pm

Best run: 15.954 @ 86.58 mph

Got 12 passes in. All between 15.964 and 16.4 except for the pass where I couldn't find 3rd gear, then it was a 16.8. Took 4 tries to go into gear lol. Synchros are pretty bad in 3rd. It actually popped out of gear once lol. I was ---- cuz I ran a 16.006 @ 82 mph on that pass and prolly woulda had a better time than the 15.954.

Oh well, not bad for a bone stock '95 SOHC (in a '96) unless you think a 3.0 intake tube, DOHC muffler and PCM and no accessories are actually mods. They are just on cuz that's how the car was before I had to throw the SOHC in.

Rock Falls Raceway by Eau Claire, WI. Define "right on par" cuz I've not seen many people hit 15's with a stock SOHC. AMM had to use ITB's and a Mopar computer and crap to hit 15's.

usually stock sohcs can run lower 16's if the motor is in good shape. Not trying to take away from your glory chip :roll:

My 95' would trap 89 and do 15.7 with less mods than you chip. This was right at sea level though. Also was with 175 80 13's as well or what ever rediculous tires come on a stock 95'.

I think its a good time for a SOHC. I would be happy if my SOHC powered beater ran 17's. :lol:

140K on the engine and it leaks oil all over the place. 1000' feet or so.

I was reading through the forums and found this.. figured id add my 2 cents.

my '95 DOHC and 3.94 tranny, with olmost a centimeter of filth caked on the intake manifold and all 16 valves lol, and 300,000+ miles on the engine(not sure exactly how much over 300k) ran 17.02 at Reynolds Raceway or "Silver Dollar Raceway" as some called it, in Georgia. oh yea, the 17.02 time, it started burning oil like a whore after I hit 3rd. after its 2nd run it completely locked up. :-) I loved it, cause now it has a 60k SOHC out of a 2001 ES

The DOHC that blew up had only these mods: Iceman, EGR block-off plates, hard mounted linkage at the shifter, SRT4 shift rod, MM inserts, and Magnaflow muffler. Also the 17.02 run was with a passenger. Him and I together probably weigh around 280-320lbs.

Holy old thread bump!

That engine blew up while driving on freeway only 3 months later. Had severe lack of power for a day and then seized up solid. When I tore the trans down, the synchros for 3rd and 5th had no teeth left on them, the trans was full of brass chunks, and the bearing on the output shaft was missing. Well I found it in the case. :lol:

I got my NYG to go 15.7@87, but it has an iceman and a pacesetter short tube hack welded in place, dohc pcm, along with no PS or AC. Stupid 3.94 trans has the exactly wrong gearing for the sohc as it is.

2.4 with cams this fall, I'll be happy.

I'd personally say the 3.94 is still better than a 3.55 if running a SOHC, that'd be the assumption. idk. My issues right now aren't that deep. I am just worried about the fact my damn car won't hook up. I'm thinking that the worn C-arm bushings and blown struts may be the problem. :roll: lol

EVEN more so a problem, the car is not even legal to drive right now. needs inspection and reg./plate.

It is really better for the accelleration but the issue is I'm trapping at 87-88 mph. After 6700 the car starts to die hard. According to the online calculator I should be crossing the traps around 6700 RPM's, but I'm always running it past 7K going through the traps, so I'm not sure what's going on there. If I shift to 4th around 6100-6300, it seems like it does a little better.

if its dieing, then maybe the timing needs advanced? maybe need a way to adjust ignition, or maybe its just not getting the air or fuel it needs at the higher rpm? and yea these engines mostly stock seem to die out around 6100-6300. LTH and a ghettoblaster mite help...

It's the fact that the stock cam sucks. 6700 rpms and these motors are done.
