Work with what you have. A fast car seldom gets like that in one season!







I know....I have had this combo for a while. It should run better than it does, its just seems like its stuck...



It should run better but besides your fuel or ignition problems, the combo is far from optimized.
Take my car for example, on the Dyno my engine made 750 hp at 6200 and 700 tq at 4900. It's a 526 wedge with Indy SR heads. Car weight is 3200lbs with driver. The car should be well into the 9's with the proper gear/converter/engine tune.
But I slowed it down by using a 4:10 gear with a 32 inch tire, a tight 3500 torque converter, and backed the timing down to 30 degrees total.
The result in Las Vegas where we run slower anyway was a 10.26 @ 131 mph.

So you probably have a lot left in your combo, I would say a whole second at least.
