m396 #00-011 Posted October 4, 2003 Report Share Posted October 4, 2003 I can't find the thread now, but I thought some mag was testing a Radix SS? Thought it was suppose to be on Oct 2nd or something. Did it happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thallent Posted October 4, 2003 Report Share Posted October 4, 2003 Wish I could have gone to see it. I didn't get home from work early enough. How many runs did they get Thursday? Also in addition to the sc did they have anything else done to the truck? By chance do you know what time they ran when they did their stock run when they first started their testing?

TimB Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 There stock runs weren't that good it was like 15.7. They did no other mods except the sc. They only made 2 runs the other was 14.02 I beleive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevyHighPerformance Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 Here is a prevue of some the test results to support our upcoming install article on the Radix. Take this data as preliminary: Stock (tailgate down): 60' 2.335 sec 330' 6.614 sec 1/8 10.169 sec / 70.13 MPH 1000' 13.234 sec 1/4 15.875 sec / 85.05 MPH max HP (2nd gear) - 250 HP max TQ (2nd gear) - 271 HP With Radix (tailgate down): 60' 2.001 sec 330' 5.771 sec 1/8 8.904 sec / 79.12 MPH 1000' 11.642 sec 1/4 13.990 sec / 95.81 MPH We made about 10 runs around 3PM. Best time was 13.99 (above). The rest of the runs were from 14.001 to 14.05. We left for a while and came back for test and tune that evening. We made two more runs (best was 13.98 other was about 14.02). This was with no tailgate and no spare. The truck sat for about 1.5 hours before our first run of the evening. I really think the fluids were too cold and the drivetrain needed heated up. max HP (2nd gear) - 340 HP max TQ (2nd gear) - 345 HP timing advance - 15.5 degrees 0 knock retard Ltrims at medium cruise - 3% We measured the aerodynamic drag and rolling friction. Based on our calcualtions and measurements, the top speed is about 149 MPH drag limited in 4th gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
