Hmm, interesting info on the lash. My card says 26/26 hot and i have it lashed at 18/20 cold. Maybe i will loosen it up to what the card says and see how it feels.
There was also a sasktel camera crew there filming the event so i am going to try and get a copy of it when they air it on tv.

You may be right. I will be loosening the lash in the next few weeks hopefully (if work and building the new garage does not get in the way). Unfortunatly, i will not be going back to the track this year as i have too much other stuff on the go.

I did notice i was crossing the line at ~5500 rpm this year compared to 5200 last year.

Well, i checked the schedule and i may be going back to the track oct 4&5 if there is no snow on the ground. I will loosen the lash and may have the nitrous online for that weekend!
Maybe i will get back in the 11's on motor and one shot at in the tens on the juice.

Tire height can play a big role in topend rpm as well as 60' times, bias vs radial tire, and rear gears. If/when you go back to the track I'd like to see the car run with the stickiest & shortest set of tires you own NA; while moving the shift point up. Based on the topend mph and rpm of the NA run may require a taller set of tires with the nitrous to help out with the topend rpm from the increased mph. Good luck I'll be watching! JD

Shortest and stickiest i have are the 275/60 MTDR's, same as i ran last year. The only difference from last year is the cam and intake. I am running consistent MPH of 110-111, last year i was around 108-111. I will move the shift up and see how it goes, say 6300?

NOTE: Make sure you have enough "Jet" in the carb as more airflow means more fuel consumption. JD

K, will do. Carb is jetted 80/88 right now with rear PV plugged. It is rich as the tailpipes are pure soot.
I may purchase a A/F data logger by that weekend though, would help with the tuning.

coool!!!, do you have bungs for the O2 sensors? I am going to put them in and have the headers coated over the winter. |

Yup, i have dual naroow band sensors in now but do not trust them enough to tune with.
I run my sensors just after the header collector.

Thanks for the picture, thought they had to go into the collector.

I think narrow bands are supposed to go in the header as they need to be a certain temp to read well. Widebands are heated so they can be further away and still work.

I dont think i will be upgrading mine until i go twin turbo, which will be a year or two. I have had no problems yet. I plan on upgrading the heads in spring (315cfm KRE-D's by SD) and restalling the 'verter higher so i will see how it handles it next year.
