If you are setting the base timing at 15, how are you not blowing head gaskets? Is the spout connecter out?

the spout is in, its just good gas i guess and the FMU really dumps gas into at WOT

Nice 60s, nice times and nice mph. BUT, like I've said in every one of your threads, get a TUNE Stop worrying about the cam and all that. You have a combo that will run easy 11s, there's no reason to open up the motor. Put a power pipe on it, a pulley, and get a professional dyno tune. I know you think it's dialed in decent, and you have good gas blah blah blah. But a tune will give you a MUCH bigger power gain than any cam swap, and it will be MUCH safer than guessing on the tune.

i will probably get the tune done first.

i want to get a tweecer and learn myself. play around and get the basics and then getting more in depth with it. once i get that good i want to throw more boost and do the cam or whatever. if i can tune beforehand, the gains will be much bigger once i do throw more boost onto it.

i'll start with the powerpipe and tweecer and work on that!
