Darby, i ended up jetting 85 rear 75 front, total timing at 36deg. yes i suppose there is some A/F tuning to be had. i was pretty excited to try out my innovate A/F meter until ron at R&R showed me 20 bad senders that he has gone through with the innovate system.

i could regret going bigger on the cam, but i wasn't willing to give it more compression, gear, RPM and i am using a stick so the power band coming in later kind of worried me. plus i never have owned a soild so i wanted to try it out. plus i feel like i might be asking alot of the cast eagle crank

11.50 is the absloute fastest i want to go, and honestly i still probally far from it.

launch rpm - 3500-4K ( at 4k i severed a axle)
drops from shifting- ?
i had been shifting at 5200 (based on the old cam)

Brett- i did have a rev limiter fail, when it jumped 2nd. motor died, got pushed off the track, said various swear words ect..


But what i REALLY WANT. is to have a picture like Darbys hanging on my garage wall. (wheels up)

Steve, already went. couldent you hear the motor from your house?
