Ok . Hope the news is good .

Good onya .

We were talking about the Saginaw Type II pumps that came on a lot of GM products. From what I have found in this forum , The pressure can not be reduced internally on the G 3 Hemi pump.

Rat Patrol put me onto eastcoastmoparts in Maryland , I've used them for various bolts and Gaskets . and I will use them again .

I don't have the BBK , but this is how my F&B throttle body is set up . It came with the rather flimsy throttle body mounted cable bracket ( I strenghtend it up alot ) . I made some brackets to secure the cable at two locations of the fuel rail bolts , and used a long lokar cable and cut it to...

Yup got Caltracks . I'm foot braking it to around 1500 rpm . I'm going to try it from idle next time I take it out .

A 6.1 should be real nice in your Javelin , easier than an A body maybe ? .

Another one for the list . Mo-cars , 1977 Valiant Ute , Stock 6.1 , Stock induction 85mm throttle body , 904 TF , 4700 converter , 4.10 gears 28'' tire , 3505 lbs with driver , 11.658 @ 113.96 mph , Willowbank Raceway Brisbane Australia .

Did that last week . 3505 lbs with me in it and 1/4 tank of fuel.

Good work on the list Rat , I plan to take mine to the track again this week with different tires . Yeah thats pretty hefty BBSwinger , must be the cage , at least your safe.

Yeah keep us posted on the times Guys . Maybe there should be a sticky for gen3 1/4 times .

Buschi . The engine on the Above Engine Dyno had 23 degress timing and used 93 MON fuel . The USA uses the MON rating , other countries including Australia and Europe use the RON rating . Look up octane rating on Wikipedia for more info . I think ? you will be Ok with 25deg timing and 102...

Great work . hope you do well with it .

Yes stock manifold and cable 80 mm TB . Just remember that this is a Gross HP figure , like they used in the old days . the Factory 425 HP is net HP , so it's done with complete exhaust and front accessories . Not an apples to apples comparison , but still useful.

try again .

This was quite useful to me , so I thought I would share it . It's a stock 6.1 with 1 7/8 " headers , EFI Source megasquirt Gold Box and and WOT timing set at 23 degrees. A while back I requested this from Mike at EFI Source , to help me fill out my convertor spec sheet . I posted it with his...

Thanks guys , in my case lowering the effective gear ratio numerically is the desired out come . Bushi340 , Yes I think try these things , It will do no harm . Give me a couple of days I will upload a stock 6.1 dyno printout .

forgot to mention , I don't understand why you are not using 4th gear ! you have 4.11's right .

Your 178 kph ( 110.5 mph ) suggests you are down approx. 25 hp , compared to mine . 25 deg : I think , is too much timing for WOT. When dealing with NA engines , getting them of the line at near peak torque really helps ET's . Traction issues : CalTracs work good .

You need to side step that clutch at 4500 :burnout:. What rear gears , what tires , are you getting 100 % traction , what induction .

Should be a little rocket , the OD will be nice .

I think the converter being right on the engines torque peak is a big contributor to the good ET . The rev limiting that came in the ECU is very safe I think I'll leave it that way for now, it progressively cuts 12 deg of timing from 6000 - 6500 then cuts fuel . Mike at EFI Source told me I...

Thanks , I will try less timing . makes me wonder how they got away with 23 at idle in the installed tune.

Thanks for the tip : but that got me thinking , would having the IAC open by an amount equivelent to the drilled hole achive the same ?

There's been a number of problems with it but the one that's bugging me the most is that the manifold vacuum pulls the throttle blade in so tight that it sticks , if I open the blade enough with the idle screw to eliminate that problem , the idle is around 1100 rpm , I don't know what to do next.

Yes good racing weather , don't think the 0 humidity part was accurate though . 4.11 gears 26" tyre 4700 converter . I havn't weighed the car since the engine swap but I guesstimate it's between 3400 and 3500 lbs with me in it. I want to try a 28' tyre . The gold box is good so far , I've...

Using the EFI Source Gold box Megasquirt .

Sorry about lack of updates , I've been avoiding the computor as much as possable , to get things done . It's been up running for about a month now and I got it out to the track last week . this is the result from a stock 6.1 Hemi .

I removed both vent boxes , replaced with plate and flex tube leeding to remote eyeball vent , frees up some room while still providing some ventilation . I think I'll mount my ECU on pass side kick panal , and fuses , relays , bus bars , on panal inside firewall . I also like to retain glovbox.

What a bummer , I would not have thought the bores would be that thin .
