Took the car down the track.
Got some initial numbers.

Went down last weekend to 1320 at Bradenton Friday night and then over to Lakeland on Saturday night.

Not exactly the ET's I was looking for. But I have a base line to start from. And so long as I go faster and not slower,.. I'll be happy.

Best 1/4 mi ET so far was 13.09@109
Best 1/8 mi ET so far was 8.24@88

My 60 foots have been pretty shitty. A combination of things. Me still learning the car,.. trying different RPM's and launching styles,.. slipping the clutch, dumping the clutch etc etc.

Both times at the track I was running 20 PSI in 27x10 ET Streets. I'm going to see if 12 - 15 PSI works better and see if I can get a dead hook with some decent RPM behind it to launch the car.

Had some issues with the carb. Had a off idle stumble and just didnt have the time to dedicate to fixing it. So I PM'd Na306StAnG so see what he would charge to tweak the carb for me. I couldnt turn down the price he offered to do it at so I trailered the car down to him. One thing lead to another and next thing I know he had the carb done. Went to larger jets front and rear, larger squirter, chaged the power valve and adjusted the pump cams. Motor is very happy now,.. really seems to like the new carb settings.

Shawn also put on the power steering relocation bracket and relocated the power steering pump to where the A/C compressor was. He cleaned up under the hood a little for me. Got rid of all the EFI wiring harness and things that were in the way. Looks a lot better under the hood now.



BEFORE:



AFTER:
With power steering pump relocated but still have all the EFI wiring laying around.



Now with the EFI wiring cleaned up:






Still have a long way to go.
Slowly getting things done.

I'm aiming for some high 11 sec ET's for the 1/4 mi N/A on motor and some 1.5 - 1.6 60 ft times. Once I have that dialed in I will work toward getting nitrous hooked up and getting that dialed in for some 10 sec ET's hopefully.
