If you have some time, could you post pics and video (sound recording) of that exhaust system? I have heard the Spintechs on everything except a Pontiac. Is your rear end stock length? Is your rear suspension still in the stock location? Thanks! Nice job by the way and good luck.

Been there done that with Mallory Never again!, Try the Aeromotive A1000!!! You will love it!, So how well does your Power Brakes work with that cam? What's your comp ratio?

Comp ratio is 11.2:1.
The power brakes actually seem to work really well to my surprize.
Im still gonna go manual brakes,need to get a master good for 4 wheel disc.
I need to do ALOT of carb tuning,the thing is pig rich.
Dont know what i would do without this lm-1 wideband.

That aeromotive a1000 was the one im going with when i change pumps.I did get this mallory working again,ill see how it works and if its enough pump.I log my fuel pressure with the lm-1 so i can see if it drops off at the end of a run.

Ill get that video tommarrow.

You'll be happy with a Aeromotive A1000.

What are your jet set up / # 's ?

What Spintechs do you have?

I run the Super Stock version w/ x-over and 3" (stepped from 3.5" collector). Get allot of compliments on the sound. Borderline for the street and very mean. Never got pulled over for it.... Under hard acceleration it sounds like a "scream" for lack of a better discription. Deep & throaty at idle....totally different wide open. Spintechs seem to sound best pushing more air volume through them (larger cube motors).

You have a sharp car and engine.

I have the proshootout spintechs.They made them with a 3.5" oval inlet and 3.5" round outlet for me.

The carb is a 1095 removable sleeve king demon.I bought it used and just set it back up to out of box settings except i put a p.v in front and dropped the jets down in front.
It is at 85,93 now.
Its much better now but still needs work.
I also drilled a .180 hole in center plug in base plate instead of the throttle blades to get some idle air.
Still seams rich cruising,at 3000rpm cruise,its at 11.8-12.0afr.
But it leans out upstairs,i just did a quick WOT run to log it and make sure its ok and it was like 13.8-14.0 up around 5000-6000rpm!
I have some carb tuning ahead of me before i can really run this thing hard!

Hows it feel compared to the old setup? I know not much time or tuning yet just curious if you notice a big difference

Definitly feels stronger!!!
It actually feels scary fast!

Cant wait to make a full pass to see how it really feels.That wot run i made was just in third gear,i hit it and stayed on it for 3-4 seconds and about 5800rpm.
I didnt want to stay in it untill i knew what the afr was.
Good thing i didnt,the afr was climbing with the rpm.

Its a march serp system.

Today i dropped the hs air bleeds down from .029 to .023 and went up on the int air bleeds from .073 to .076.
I also hooked my autometer fuel pressure sensor to the lma-3 box so i can log fuel pressure to make sure the reason its going lean isnt because im running out of fuel up in the rpm.
Didnt drive it yet to see what diff it made.
