What is the fastest the car has gone before? EDIT> I see it now, Looks like 9.22? It would take about 70 hp @ 3300# to go from a 9.22 to a 8.99. Keep that in mind. To pick up .2 from a low 9 it take much more than a few "tweaks"

the new indy epoxy inserts got me .2 in my 63. plus new slicks and i was really short shifting, hopefully some good air and a prepped track might get me close. maybe cecil county instead of atco this weekend.

I`m going to Island last race day/gamblers race of the year. Jason make sure you tell me how the oil thing works out. Have you been out since Mopars at the Patch? Also you better check the E Town schedule I think you have to run mufflers on Saturdays.

.2 on a 10 sec car is a lot different than .2 on a 9 sec car. Good luck, just telling you what I learned when shooting for an 8 sec slip, the faster you go, the harder it is to make significant improvements.
It only takes 40 hp to go from 10.2 to 10.0 in a 3300# car. That was 614hp to 652 hp. On the low 9 combo it was 832->894 to go from 9.2 to 9.oh. Good luck with it. I don't mean to pee in your Wheaties, just speaking from experience.
i know exactly what you mean, and you are 100% correct, the faster you go,the harder it is. i'm just wondering since the 9.22 pass, i was underjetted and short shifting. also slicks had no sidewalls left, so i think i am leaving a little on the table. maybe its just wishful thinking and hoping. even if i can get a 9 .0 pass or close would be nice to end the year on a positive note with this car. thanks
