hi guys. thanks for the interest. i took my wagon to a show at a local speedshop in june. but since then i got a little burned out. i have also been going back to school the last year and a half at night. i took a CAD class to learn how to design parts. i took a machining class, where i got to make a ballpeen hammer, and i have taken three welding classes. (not trying to make excuses) so i had to take a break from the car thing. i also found that while i was tuning it, i wasnt building any boost. so i checked my calculations and it looked like i underdrove the blower too much, i had it 10% underdriven, which according to my math, gave me -0.14 psi. so i had a new pulley made. this time overdriven 24%, which should give me about 5 pounds of boost. but even with it not making any boost, i still had to jet the 600 holley up to keep it from going lean under WOT. and from what i understand. boost reading is a measurement of buildup in the intake that the engine isnt using. so i guess it was just using everything the blower was giving. if im wrong you guys can chime in. so like i said, i have this new pulley sitting in a box, i just need to bolt it up, get a new belt, and fix one tranny line thats leaking. but i guess i have just been a little sidetracked. anyways, once this weather gets a little better (not raining every weekend) i need to get back out in the garage and finish working the bugs out. i would love to enter my wagon in the slant six class at ohlone, maybe i will finally get a trophy haha. well sorry for the long winded reply, and thanks again guys. i will keep you posted.
