Don at Afco gave me a baseline setting on rebound and compression and he was spot on. I highly recommend Afco shocks We fought clutch/traction issues on Sat and lost in the first round my tire smoking 5.42 to his 5.38 Donald 69 Dart swinger 417 W8 Liberty 5 speed 6.03 @114/9.49 @141 on motor 5.30 @131 on juice 1/8th mile 28x10.5's at 3200lbs 70 Challenger RT 440 4-speed 4:10 Dana http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VowFy4nDdfI

Ryan, Mike has had the tuneup perfect all year long, plugs look great. I have had some trouble keeping up with the clutch. As far as the hp#'s on the nos, (I know we have another step left) Mike takes care of all of that.

Glad to see it is still in 1 piece & congrats on new best. Ryan, this is with a 36n/28f (350hp), 5.5 psi fuel pressure, 15 degrees of timing, 4 degrees of launch retard for 1.20 seconds or so depending on the track, no fuel ring and timing mark before the bend on the ground strap. You know what a slug it was on the dyno so it likes the spray! Big thanks to Monte Smith on the nitrous mapping! FYI, the motor will be coming out soon for you to freshen.
