Yes Tim, we are looking for answers.

We need times, we must know, its a burning question we are all facing.

Or did you run it, and not have the times you were expecting?

Ahh... must know... feel... myself.... spontaneously... combusting..

I dont know didnt get it dyno'ed...but it sure hauls. The TBI actually runs really well with this combo and 8* advanced timing. I thought it would run like ***, but it has been awesome so far.

no news yet. i didn't get to the track yet.
i was warming up the car and my mom noticed a "puddle of something" on the intake. the car was leaking gas out of the return line fitting.
the little plastic disk the seals into the throttle body must have gotten caught on a thread when i was tightening it. i got a new one in and it is all better. it also helped my fuel pressure a bit, i was seeing a 1psi pressure drop when i nailed the gas, now it is only like 1/4 psi drop. which is perfectly acceptable.
i will post it as soon as i have any numbers.
i am gonna hit the track soon, but my goals are for the summer. my points start in june. so the car will be prepared by then.

later
tim

nope, no times yet either

However, the car is running perfect right now, so it would be a great time to run. This weekend, we are expecting rain though

Damn weather has been beating me down.

EDIT: Which reminds me.. last night.. I had a dream my car ran a 13.8. HAHAHHA OMG I wish.

I, too, had a dream my car ran a 13.8.

It was more like a nightmare, but... to each his own.
