Todd Boyer Would definitely agree! I come from the low end and all we knew where tricks with basic tools and a voltmeter. Proved a whole lot’

Todd Boyer, Agreed 100%! Nothing cooler than stock eliminator. 👍🏻

How do they verify that the internals are actually stock? I know nothing about racing.

they take intelligence not $$$

My '89 Fox is showroom original, from all the fasteners to the original white dot plugs. I guess that would make it 'true' stock?

You sound like you think it’s difficult to build a trans.

You're welcome.

It was in a magazine.. muscle mustang and fast fords..

The coyotes is what is in now the fox will always be legendary

@@davidpizzati9759 Uh, no it wasn't this car.

You sure??? It looks just like it .. even that old school accel dfi..

Mad Irishman This car showed up on plenty of magazines throughout the 90s and early 2000s..I guess you must be new and to racing if you don’t know who Steve sullivan is 🤣😂

Thanks Frank.

I had an discussion with someone about reving that high. That guy didn't believe you could get e7s and intake to do it.

Will do, thanks for subscribing.

REVan Evan, Yes please do, love stock! 👍🏻

@@revanevan do you know what he had in his axle? Or was it supposed to be stock also?

@@oscarvillarreal8951 You can change gears so probably 4.86-5.14 range.

Thank you!

Check this out. Runs 12.60’s. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jMdljZCjmsvFd6c.html

Yeah what era do you think this guy is from?!

Thanks!

mrdrenalin69 mainly the hat.

Why did it show it get gaped in the first run tho

@@pandawillymofo6518 That was during qualifying, there are many cars in different classes running in NHRA Stock Eliminator.

Companies pay $300 per win if you use their parts.

Gotta get that contingency cash 💵

A lot more to it than that

@@hs400 i agree there is alot of magic going on with these i respect them so much. The things he mentioned are def factors but that aint the only reasons its in the 11s.

@tel rep its a race car it dont matter what it drives like on the highway it probably never sees the highway.

Rune Bekkelund holy crap, how are you?

@@revanevan all good here , thanks. still have the same number?

@@RB66_ Yes I do, give me a call.

C&C Phx, I’m well aware of that, thanks. 👍🏻

Heck yeah!

Rodney is the man!

Fuck yeah he does!

The guy can slam gears

Yes he does and goes a little beyond with explaing things also with the bla bla bla ending

Some people just can’t believe that it’s possible. They have no idea.

Zachary Miller Hard work and dedication!

Depends on the year, check the guide, I think 91-93f150's are in there but that's about it for years. (91-93 all ford trucks rangers/aerostars/f150's even E-150's are in the guide, wouldn't that be a rolling commercial! LOL!!

Thank you

It's in the works

ImFromDadeCounty.223 A really good TOP SECRET valve job. No grinding in the ports. As delivered from FOMOCO.

Those stickers (companies) pay $300 each when you win. They aren’t there to look cool, it’s called contingency payout.

Most Stocker guys run VP C11, C12, C16 or C25. Looks like when he started the burnout the tires were gripping right before they broke free from the track so it loaded the suspension and lifted the rear.

You're right. Completely different vehicle. Utilize and tune what works best for your combination. Squat works well for IRS type cars but be careful to monitor how much. Shock tuning is your friend.

Matt, I've known Jerry 25 years, and I've written a story on his Z/28 for Super Chevy magazine. The 302 has indeed been apart and maximized for NHRA Stock Eliminator. In no way is that a factory original engine. Please check your information.

REVan Evan what I was told is Jerry bought the car new and with exception of trans and tuning, the cork hasn’t been popped in the motor. Even if it has been, it’s unreal how fast that car is with this cubic inches. I run a small journal 302 in my 66 Chevy II and they’re definitely very cool engines

@@mattperkins7038 those are fantastic cars and some of my favorite Chevys. In addition to writing the story, I competed against Jerry in my H/S Ford Cobra Mustang with a 302 and 5-speed. (You can see videos of the car on this channel.) Like mine, Jerry's car is fully maximized to the NHRA Stock Eliminator rules, I assure you. This means blueprinting the engine, to minimize combustion chamber, overbore on engine, using a Stocker cam (stock lift, any duration and overlap), optimized valve job, open headers, plus optimized suspension, transmission and gear ratios, etc. With all due respect, I've seen a competent driver in bone stock 302 Z/28 produce low 13s with sticky tires. There is no way you're gonna run 10s with a stock 290 hp 302. The science doesn't add up. As an example, a stock 1993 Cobra runs low 13s, maybe high 12s with slicks. This is with a factory 235 hp engine at roughly 3,350 lbs. My car (same 1993 Cobra) in NHRA Stock trim has been 10.65/123 mph. On a wheel dyno my "235 hp" engine makes 415 hp (would be estimated 450 on an engine dyno) as built for the NHRA rules. It takes 450-475 (flywheel) hp to run mid-10s in Jerry's car. Lastly, what induction and transmission are you running, I love those cars!

At this race the car was not up to par on launch as in the past. Theoretically you only want the front tires just off the ground. Any more is using energy in the wrong direction. In the faster Stockers and Super Stockers big wheelstands can catch air and slow the car's acceleration. On the other hand there are those who feel that the higher the wheelstand (up to a point) the more of the car's weight is imposed on the rear tires enhancing traction. Right Gary? This is more helpful and over comes any aerodynamic deficiencies. I like the second opinion if only because wheelstands are fun! LOL

@@madirishman1333 I always love to see wheelstands too. I'm just surprised how Fox bodies used to pull the tires so easily, but later model cars, even with a lot more power, never seem to.

busslayer It’s not about how much power you make it’s about chassis setup. Among other things.

i know right lol

Very stock, I'll have more on Stock and SS to come.

Check out www.nhraracer.com/ on the Competition tab as well as www.classracerinfo.com for Stock/Super Stock class info.

Great question, in Stock Eliminator you have to deal with stock lift to you not only have big duration (over 300), but the ramp rates are insane, so the valve opens very fast to get to max lift and shuts late. This takes increased spring pressure and stiff pushrods to prevent float. The "best" duration for any engine is determined by the combination (displacement, compression, desired rpm range, induction, etc.). In NHRA Stock with the 302 HO you have limited induction and weak exhaust ports so you need lots of duration, engine blueprinting and a great set of headers to increase air velocity in and out of the engine. Hope that helps. I don't know exactly what cam Steve is running, but I ran one with over 320 degrees duration in my Stocker engine.

REVan Evan Great info.

Yes, E7TE heads, stock valves and stock TB and intake.

@@revanevan stock, but ported??

@@302hobronco Porting is not allowed in Stock Eliminator. Watch my next video that I'm about to post on NHRA teardown procedure.

They should allow the fox bodies to run iron gt 40 heads since the e7s suck so bad stock port. They would still be factory stock heads just a few years to late for the fox. Bc u know since ford put them on a explorer had they had them sooner u know they would have put them on during the years they kept increasing power on the h.o. and yes I know the cobra had them but that was 93 last year for fox and the cobra was a special 1 year car that by all rights needed to be better and stronger than a regular h.o fox.
