Thanks, the air was about 2600ft so that's pretty good here in Vegas. My problen is a tight converter (leaving at 2500 on the foot brake) and only a 4.10 gear with a 32" tire lol.

Hmmm, tight converter, tall tire, 4.10's, that thing is just begging for a plate and a bottle!

I was thinking the same thing Billy, what do you think about a 250 shot to start out with? I'm running 34 degrees of timing, I was thinking back it down to 28 but really I've never run nitrous so what would your suggestion be?

Only thing I see ghetto in that pict is the thug standing back behind it! Car looks very nice James! We're you able to go rounds? I see Curtis's pipe rack won 5K today.
No we broke out in the first round and then redlit by -.006 in the second and ran a 10.02 on a 10.00 dial. I'm still letting my friends son drive it even though I wanted to this time but he begged and even paid the entry lol so we're figuring it out one pass at a time, that is when I have time haha.

Congrats on the new best and I really like your car! "I'm going to check the rear jets in the morning and hopefully get in the 9's. " I am betting there will be a bunch more "new bests" Ever try the cam in later? I have 528 cubes,440-1 heads, cam at 110.

I love new bests ! Good job with the initial tuning, and it sounds like you might find more. With the 4.10/32" and 135 mph you are going easy on that engine at the finish line (RPM). What do you find it likes to shift at? Even with the "tight" converter, it seems to leave the starting line just fine. Do you have any idea what RPM the converter goes to at WOT?
