Anybody who knows anything about hosepower numbers and sees peak hp at less than 4000 rpm, instinctively knows something is wrong with the method.
Ever consider mechanical injection? I was running a gas dominater many years ago and went to F.I. and methanol, picked up over two tenths and three or four mph. E85 could also be used, from what i hear only .05 slower than methanol.i don’t put a lot of stock in the numbers because in my case right now I’ve gone 9.42@138mph. But between what I think need a bigger carb (850 gas converted to alcohol), 4.88 gears, and a solid lifter cam, my combo is dead in the water before 1000 foot. Hopefully try a bigger carb this year and update my five year old valve springs.
Came up 146 hp short on my 550 bbSaw it on Facebook but I’m one of those I don’t care how much horsepower I have. Try it out.
