what was your complete timeslip? That's a good mph for that ET, but a crappy ET for that much RWHP. No offense

I wont get a good ET out of my car for a good while, at most im hoping for a 1.8 60' with my stock 10 bolt and im even scared to do that. The mph i ran at darlington was with rocker arms that were way too tight and i had 10 broken harmonic dampeners in my valve springs and 10 busted valve stem seals. I also short shifted the car so there is a good bit left in it, i really need to get the car to the track again and see what i can do with it with the new rockers, new opti, new valve springs, and a bit more compression then i had to begin with. All are whats on the graph other then the new opti which cleaned it up a good bit but i also need a coil.

Yep, stock Throttle Body, hopefully i can get it to the track this thursday with the good weather to see if i can atleast get a good mph, i know the E/T isnt going to be as good as it can be since our track rarely ever preps good. low 8's would be a good day on this track Not to mention this being the first time at the track with;
good tune
good valve train
good ignition system

Should make a big difference since those things are a wee bit important to a car performing well

LTblackbird, when you did your dyno, could you feel the misfiring, or did you not even know it was there? Nice numbers for sure.

That's crazy that you didn't even know the misfire was there.

Im no longer with F-Body Motorsports, the new owners took over and we did not like the direction they were taking the business so we left and started our own place, Zeus Performance. They are not going to do another track day
