i must be completely missing something ?!?
Get the jet close.
Run timing loops. Then shift loops.Then tire pressures. Repeat.
Increase coolant temps, rerun loops.
I've been working on the free stuff - tire pressure, shift loops. Lately I've been wanting to play with the jets. I installed a wide band o2 sensor ( dual carburetors- I knew I'd need something). Now it's reading 12.1 or so at idle and 11.3 or so at open throttle ?? I think it should be little less rich, but the plugs look good ? No smoke. I've ran out of big money to throw at the suspension. On top of $100 to $150 every time I take it out, (witch I'm ok with) it's the $200 in parts I seem to have to spend when I get back#-o - last week the dipstick this week the water pump :banghead:
Really I'm very happy with the car! It's met or exceeded my expectations. The first time out last year (with the 318 ) starting of in third gear LOL 18.2 - and 15.4 by the end of the night. 13.72 by the end of the year. So my hopes for the new motor was 12.7 and did it first time out. Then my end of summer hopes was to an 11.99, nailed it second time out. Now I'm trying to chase down the tenths to keep it interesting.
I'm seeing where I've went so wrong - I need to throw 5-8k at the suspension? LOL
OOOORRRRR $700 on a dual quad nitrous kit ? ??? I'll probably only have money to chase tenths.
