HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags Presented By COMP Cams® In the Record Books

Weather-extended Pump Gas Drags won by Jim Plimpton of Franksville, Wisconsin in his supercharged ’89 Thunderbird

Extreme engine temperatures and severe weather were unable to slow the efforts of Jim Plimpton and his impressive ’89 Thunderbird which took top honors at the fifth annual HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags sponsored by COMP Cams®. After hitting an incredible 300-degree engine temperature during the challenging 30-mile drive from COMP Cams® headquarters to the Memphis Motorsports Park, Plimpton ultimately converted that heat into power and cranked out a final round win. Plimpton’s supercharged, 572cid Ford-powered T-Bird recorded an impressive 8.536-seconds, 163.06 mph speed and defeated the ’70 red Nova of Ray Doughty, which logged a valiant 8.674 second, 160.14 mph effort.

The HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags is a unique event designed to challenge high performance race/street cars to not only pass a rigorous tech inspection and race on 93-octane Rockett Brand “pump” gas, but to drive from the tech inspection area at COMP Cams® corporate headquarters to the Memphis Motorsports Park (MMP) without the aid of support vehicles.

The two-day event was highlighted by the first ever Beale Street Bash at the Coyote Ugly Bar on the legendary Beale Street in downtown Memphis on Friday night, May 9. The Pump Gas Drags competition then kicked off on Saturday morning, May 10 and was extended to two days when severe weather shut down the race track after the first round of competition on Saturday. Racing resumed Sunday morning at 11 a.m. with four rounds of fast action culminating in the final race between Plimpton and Doughty.

The staff of COMP Cams® would like to thank all competitors and attendees for participating in the 5th Annual HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags – we hope you had as much fun as we did.

Fuel Injector Adapter Harnesses & Connector Kits

To further serve the needs of late-model GM performance tuners, FAST™ has also developed a full line-up of fuel injector adapter solutions. FAST™ adapter harnesses and connector kits enable easy retro-fit of both new and old style electronic fuel injectors. New-style fuel injectors, such as those found on GM’s Gen IV engines featuring USCAR connectors, can now be retrofitted and used on vehicles equipped with older-style Minitimer connectors. Retro-fitting a Minitimer injector into a USCAR harness is also possible with another newly developed FAST™ adapter harness. Connector kits, complete with terminals, seals, and plugs, are available as well, allowing direct re-termination of existing harnesses with the correct connectors, either Minitimer or USCAR.

FAST™ Big Mouth Throttle Body™ (92mm)
FAST™ Big Mouth Throttle Body™ (92mm)

New 92mm throttle body design incorporates major upgrades, including redesigned linkage for smoother operation and improved throttle response

When it comes to improving your engine’s performance, increased airflow is generally a key ingredient. The newly released FAST™ Big Mouth Throttle Body™ for the FAST™ LSX™ 92mm Intake Manifold increases airflow through a series of innovative design changes and a slightly enlarged throttle opening. When used with the new FAST™ LSX™ 92mm Intake Manifold, FAST™ has put their “manifold where their mouth is” in terms of enhanced engine performance and drivability.

But the increased size of the FAST™ Big Mouth Throttle Body™ is just a small part of the added benefits. FAST™ invested significant testing and engineering resources into optimizing cross-sectional flow and eliminating airflow turbulence, especially at part throttle operation. In addition, these throttle bodies offer increased throttle blade thickness to eliminate deflection commonly found with other throttle bodies, especially those in boosted applications. A smoother operating offset blade pivot improves throttle response, and a beefed up linkage and dual throttle spring mechanism ensure total throttle control. The new FAST™ Big Mouth Throttle Body™ will deliver bolt-on GM Gen III (LS1, -2 & -6) horsepower and maximize the potential of performance upgrades.

New intake includes refinements such as enlarged throttle body opening, higher strength polymer manifold materials and improved throttle body sealing flange and o-ring gasket

Forget about inferior knock-offs, the patented LSX™ 92mm Intake Manifold from FAST™ is the only three-piece Gen III composite manifold proven to deliver increased performance without compromising bottom-end drivability or high rpm power. For both street and racing applications, the intake manifold is an easy bolt-on installation for GM Gen III (LS1, -2 & -6) engines and is designed to work with the new FAST™ Big Mouth Throttle Body™. In an effort to improve on the previously successful LSX™ Intake Manifold introduced three years ago, the 92mm manifold has received a host of feedback-driven refinements and a larger throttle opening to match the newly released FAST™ Big Mouth™ 92mm throttle body.

The new FAST™ LSX™ 92mm Intake Manifold maintains the performance gains achieved over stock intake manifolds with no loss in drivability or low rpm torque. While the new FAST™ intake manifold delivers terrific performance right out of the box, it can be ported by the customer for even more flow. As requested by previous LSX™ customers, the new intake features the added benefits of corrosion-free stainless steel assembly bolts, an improved throttle body sealing flange and o-ring gasket and threaded insert throttle body mounts that provide increased durability.

FAST™ EFI Crate/Transplant Engine Management Kits For Late Model Chrysler Engines
FAST™ EFI Crate/Transplant Engine Management Kits For Late Model Chrysler Engines
fasteficrate-transplantenginemanagementkitforlatemodelchrysler.pdf | 301013.jpg
Complete kits include everything required to install high performance FAST™ XFI™ Fuel Injection for precise engine management and compatibility with aftermarket components

Fuel injected crate/transplant engines are an increasingly popular solution to the horsepower needs of today’s hot rod, street rod and off-road vehicle owners. These engines are very attractive because of their high factory horsepower and torque ratings combined with easier starting, better fuel economy and improved road manners. Unfortunately, these engines were designed for use with factory computers, throttle-by-wire throttle bodies and complex wiring harnesses – all components that are nearly impossible to purchase new and will leave you searching for quality used parts. The FAST™ EFI Crate/Transplant Engine Management Kit changes all of that, making it easy to convert to the FAST™ XFI™ Fuel Injection System, and includes all of those hard-to-find components and easy-to-follow instructions.

FAST™ EFI Crate/Transplant Engine Management Kits are individually tailored to perfectly match your specific brand and model of crate engine. These new kits include carefully matched components of the highest quality, starting with the industry’s most powerful, yet user friendly, fuel injection system – the FAST™ XFI™. The XFI™ Fuel Injection System comes pre-programmed with basic tune-up files for all applicable crate engines – allowing you to get up and running quickly. This system also provides the flexibility to tailor your engine’s tune-up as your knowledge and comfort level with EFI tuning grows and allows you to tune for even more horsepower with cam changes, etc. For more information about the FAST™ EFI Crate/Transplant Engine Management Kits for Late Model Chryslers or any other FAST™ product, call us at 1-877-334-8355, or visit us online at www.fuelairspark.com.
