I took it back to the track(1/8) again for more tuning. I figured if I couldn't figure it out of make some steps in the right direction I was going to rent a dyno for one day and figure it out. Don't need the dyno anymore. I had what they call a "lean condition". Anyone heard of this hehe? I ended up goin 5 jets up in the back and four in the front she loved me for it and livened right up. Ran a 7.77 and the fastest I could MPH was 86.86 and the fasted time only had a 88.07 mph. So I think the shift points need to be figured out now. The 60 fts. got slightly better and are still consistant even though now they spin a little. So needless to say I'm happy as a pig in the nastiest stinkiest pile of poop you can find.
Tonight I'll try the 1/4mi if the wife will allow. Any guess's ? Bottle, no bottle ? I don't know what that converts to ,but at 7.9's I was running 12.5's at 104. TEEHEE
