    air fuel results/adj.fuel pressure reg.

    Ok.. By looking at your graph, as final5-0 pointed out, your average air/fuel ratio happens to be 11.9/1.. Now if we look at this from a chemistry standpoint: C8H18 + O2 > CO2 + H2O which would yield a balanced oxygen/fuel ratio.. After balancing the equation, we get: C8H18 +27O >...

    3.55 vs. 3.73... Speed difference??

    I was interested in getting a set of gears, and a bit hesitant about going to 3.73 with the price of gas, as I drive on the freeway a lot. Just how much faster in the 1/4 are 3.73s compared to 3.55?:shrug:

    Racing seats

    If anybody is interested, my girlfriend bought me these exact same seats last year for Christmas for me. Instead of fabbing up an entirely new bracket, its easiest to use some angle iron with holes drilled for the original bracket/new seat holes, respectively. I can take pics and answer any...
