fl327 Posted May 2, 2002 Author Share Posted May 2, 2002 i got him, we went best two out of three on the freeway from a dead stop, car in back of us would high beam us and off we go, 1. lost the gate, caught him in second, pulled a headlight bucket pulled him third got about a car up 2. got nervous and burned out thirty feet, and couldnt make it the lead 3. clutchless 6k shifts and rocked a 2500 launch on the velle, didi a little better than race one, got out on him faster but at third gear he looked like he was about to get it back, but then the offramp came race over- chevelle runs a cast 454 with a cam, alum manifold, 800cfm holley, headers, good converter, shift kit, rally wheels 8 inchers i think. really good race and my first race in two or three months, diff xmember and all mounts holding tough, went and had food afterwards, it was really fun and i got all my race rocks off for a good while. now i need mufflers.

DavyZ Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 Good kill. Now get your car tuned properly and you'll nail him even better. Why do I say this? Because your exhaust is spewing black smoke, and not just a bit either. I think your car needs a proper tune using an exhaust analyzer or something...look into it, and that would make it just that much faster....

fl327 Posted May 4, 2002 Author Share Posted May 4, 2002 i know davy, my car is ridiculously out of tune right now. definitely not dialed in at all. i didnt drive the sucker for few months, bolted up a new intake, so i think there are a couple things i have to take care of as far as tuning goes, once i get the chance im gonna take it to our new shop and use the sniffer and this other weird diagnostic machine, it hooks up to your spark plug wires and positive lead and starts diagnosing, like a big timing light, but man this thing does crazy stuff, ignition cycles, timing, spark checks, and a dozen other functions that i am just starting to figure out. this summer when i start working there ill figure it out. oh man this new shop is the bomb. solvent tanks, smog machine, analyzers up the yang, six lifts, paint booth, exhaust rack with new mufflers everywhere and yes oh yes, frame puller and mig welders aplenty......
