No. Have only dubbed around with it when I have time. A couple of things I recently tried.
Was wondering if I had some type of obstruction between tank and fuel pump. I took a two gallon container and strapped it to the 1" tube framing for the nosecone and ran a hose to the fuel pump, completely bypassing the tank and fuel line. Same issue.
I put a fuel pressure gauge on the car and taped the gauge to the windshield (that was interesting). The gauge fluttered a lot, not sure if it's supposed to do that. While under acceleration it fluttered between 5.5 to 7, smoothly out a bit at 50 MPH fluttering at 6-7. Once I stabbed the pedal it fluttered wildly between 2-7 with the engine just laying flat. (I have already installed two different fuel pumps).
My mechanic buddy wondered if I had an obstruction in the rubber fuel line between the pump and carb. Changed both hoses, same issue.
