Well you all remember my post from the other day about finally getting back to the track. Well it didn't go so good. First pass I ran a 13.5 at 99 mph with it cutting out on the big end. Went back to the trailer to put my Holley on and the thing was leaking fuel out of the line port. Took it off and put the edelbrock on. Checked the timing and initial is at 18 which is good. Total was at 34 so I thought I would bring it up a bit. Dropped the wrench down between the bell housing and floor so it stayyed there.
At first I was shifting 5700 and crossing the line at 5000. I started shifting at 6000 on my next run and ran the same thing with the same trap rpm. Does this mean my converter is trash? It's a 2800 stall with 3:55 and 26 inch tire and trap speed was 99.
Next two runs the car layyed over right off the line and I babied it down the track.
Over all it was a bit disappointing but I had fun.
