Dynod 301/325 on 9:1 comp good A/F Ratio on stock injectors

Okay, sorry about all that I just didnt want to miss anything. Ive searched the setup pretty good and it seems pretty strong, making 300rwhp. Any plain bad spots in this setup? Ive never really looked into an extrude honed cobra intake although Ive heard of it, is it just like a port job? The heads on a flow sheet are very close to that of AFR, and the cam seems pretty healthy. Is anything holding the setup back, or is it pretty maxed out as far as the parts go?

It sounds great. Are those dyno numbers at the wheels or at the flywheel? The only thing that looks problematic is the stock injectors. That combo needs 24's bad. 300hp on a stock injector is pretty wild!

yeah, i cant decide what the hell to do with my car.

i got a job lined up im starting. once i start making money im going to buy either a DD or one newer expensive car and sell mine. like i told you in the pm, i hate used car shopping. too many shady people who sell f'd up cars.

if nothing works out with mine, good luck finding one.
