    Huge thanks to Mike = NXCOUPE for lending me his dyno today. I just wanted to verify the timing and make sure it was safe at part throttle and WOT with the new cam and extra compression. Mike suggested bringing the meth in a little sooner and the car responded well. I still haven't put any timing in it to account for the meth but you can't complain about consistent 125 degree IAT readings at the end of a pull.

    I'm curious about how it will mph at the track, that will be the tell all. Come on Thursday!

    Glad to help Rick. Shane, you and I made a good team. Your car responded well. And we know you're safe for quite a bit more boost too. I'll be at kk if I can get that leaky fitting to stop. Wife and kid are begging me to go. If you're there, I'll be there too.

    That was a cool deal by Mike. Good to hear things went well, wish I could have stuck around. A touch more timing now and I think there are good gains still to be made. Going to be pretty ridiculous if you ever go to 15psi or higher.

    After taking a break from the car over the winter, I decided to get back on it and make some changes. I'm in the process of switching over to LS coils, which means a cam sync and crank trigger. Also I'm going to use the C02 control, add 2 knock sensors, a Holley 1000cc meth solenoid and a flex fuel sensor for E85.

    I got to looking at my datalog from my 139 mph pass at edgewater, the top line of the graph speaks for itself. I'm really looking forward to this season and turning it up on E!

    You might want to stay in it to get that MPH up.

    Yeah, I kept saying the track was slick on the big end, it was about 8 seconds into the run before it made 10#'s, no idea what that's about. Pressure on top of the gate will fix that up.

    If this thread hasn't already run it's coarse, I'm thinking about updating some of the changes I listed a few posts up. I have everything I need to put the car back together. I tore the engine down to a short block last night. There's lots of wiring to do, so hopefully that doesn't take too long. I bought all the Holley harnesses I needed to make it go as smooth as possible. Oh, I also bought the new Holley 7"dash and ordered the Florida 50 Holley dash cluster. Should be pretty sweet when it's all said and done.

    Stopped by and saw it last night. He's got it in position to go back together. Hope it's sooner than later.
