Went with another 1/2 # boost and 2* of timing. Total timing is 23*. One step colder plug. Plug looked just right. It spun on the line. Suspension didn't even unload. After that run it rained and the air got real heavy. The seven runs after this I struggled with A/F problems so only made three more full passes. This car seems very tempremental with weather changes today and yesterday. I need to get a weather station. Shift light came on 200 ft or so before the line so I may have to use 2.76 gears. Got the convertor to flash to about 4200-4300. Tried different technics this weekend. To many lean conditions took out the head gasket today. Maybe put on a better head this time. Later

Way to go!!====>10.900 @ 124.24 mph

That timing and small boost change was good for 30-40 HP.

Nice job Ryan!

I have the line on some 2.76 gears too.
