    Tony - :chair: :p you don't have to gloat so much :lol: I'm going to give this power bond a shot from Rickki, I've been searching for problems with the powerbonds & haven't seen anything yet. I'm also going to get an SFI as a little preventative medicine, this is how powerbond says...

    Well it's not really mis-marked , it's just spun, it was dead nuts right on when it was new & even say spring before last, seems to have gave up the ghost after that though. What's the condition of the motor? If there are no ridges in the cylinders, just hone it, throw new rings in it, check...

    yeah I hear you there, tony on this thread had one & had basically the same problem. His was supposedly a SFI pinned version. as far as the coat hanger trick that's exactly what I did. That's how I figured on 27* inital. The balancer seemed 12* out so I added 15 & viola, it runs better...

    axeman- sounds cool definatly let me know when your going, hopefully the blancer will be fixed by then & I can get some more track time to get the MPH up. I should have my alum. DS /saftey loop/ upper control arms/24#ers/MAF done by then if it's not sub zero all winter (no garage:() Blancer...

    Thanks Tony that was just the info I was looking for on the timing. actually your thread started all this mess on coral :) That's when i started thinking my blancer was spun as well & it is. I decided to make some runs to determine if maybe that's been the problem all along & I think that was...

    Well talking to the friend that went with there was SOME spin in first coming out of the hole but nothing apparent there after. Yes street tires /radials, no drag radials no slicks just street tires. They are 265/50/15 pep boys futura GLS's Costs like 54 bucks a pop :D I'm aiming for...

    Thanks man, it's been a long time coming, but you still have me beat (bastard :)) LoL On another site I was told that running slicks with the proper suspension & launching high will actually increase my MPH in the 1/4... any reality to this? Would have been nice to bump into you up there...

    overevved ,pinned the tach

    Yeah, it's definatly fuel. You can by pass it technically but I wouldn't just from a safety stand point.

    Thanks Rick :) feels good to have the car finally show a little more potential. I wanted to know what amount advance the EEC has at idle/no load vs say 2000 rpm or 3000 rpm so I can check & see if the timing is advancing properly. So you don't think the fact the meter is calibrated for a...

    Something I forgot to mention... Don't ask me why but for the first time since I've had this meter I just noticed the other day at the track that it says "ELBOW" on it. Since this is set up with a stock inlet system is this screwing up the signal?

    New best MPH & ET...questions too...

    hey Derek thanks for replying.. Yeah I suspect there is some RPM on the table, how much I have no clue. Need to get an autometer to be sure. as Far as the FP goes, I'm sure it was at stock pressure, what it's at now I have no clue. Got to damned cold last night to check As far as the...

    Well to understand the 27* inital thing you would have to go back & read my other posts... Long story short the balancer has spun & I thought I was running 15* initial but it was really on 3*BTDC. I even turned it up as high as 36* intial still no ping, it just ran like crap. Plugs are...

    Well I went to cecil county raceway this saturday since it was going to be my last chance to race for the year... I managed to get 8 runs in all. A couple things to take into consideration. Previous bests were in 70-80 degree weather at a diffrent track, temps this day were in the 40's. I was...

    Quietest Free Flowing Muffler

    Well first i will have to say I have no experience with sound wave tunning :D That being said I would think DynoMax/MaxFlow combo would be awesome.

    Quietest Free Flowing Muffler

    I would tend to think this is b/c you are pushing more air through a realtivly smaller muffler than mustangs. The way i see it & feel free to correct me... the amount of velocity vs. area for the sound to be absorbed is smaller by comparison. IE 3" pipe with a 2 3" mufflers all flowing...

    help a fellow blue oval brother out

    unless you are set on the turbo swirls I'd suggest TFS /edelbrocks/Afrs' instead of the turbo swirls. Generally b/c the other heads will offer more bang for the buck than the turbo swirls. Everything else seems good but the edelbrock performer may be a better intake just b/c of flow balance...
