Darby, I hope you make Norwalk some year, it is just amazing for any fan of Pontiacs.

Formula, it is the cheapest holley regulator, so it could possibly be a restriction as well. I tried the bigger robbmc regulator, but blew the diaphragm twice. Last time was at the track, so we swapped this in. Haven't updated it since.

As for cruising at 75, that was with my old 3.23 gear. Last year the new converted and gear went in at the same time after I blew the rear. In hindsight, if I had to do over again, I would have stayed with the 3.23 gear. I now only cruise at 70 at 3000 rpm.

Here are some short videos from today.

Car cruising at 35 mph at 1620 rpm.

I do admit it is odd to run 11.43 and never hit 115.
But all my combos have always ran better ET than mph... Guess I am getting used to it, although I do keep making changes.

Maybe one day it will balance out

Although aren't they calculators that say what a car should run?
I assume I am close to proper ET for 550 hp, 3800 lbs, 3.42 gear.
Maybe not mph, but close in ET?
