Looking for more 408 pull at the big end?

Something wrong with the tune... and are you using the NOS shot on that run????? ... Your combo should make more power than his easily with the NOS shot.

Nah I did not put any juice to it with the cast crank. 'Fraid to!

I'm guessing tune and converter. Timing? Air fuel ratios going down the track? Getting full throttle to carb? Cold air intake?

Alright, I think I will start there. Enough of us are thinking "tune" so let me tinker without swapping parts 1st. As far as cold air... That is the car in my profile pic. Hemi hood scoop right to air intake. I think its getting some cold air.

The timing is pretty stout as I have it. It nearly effects cranking speed on start up.
