Default first time out with the new setup
Had a succesful night testing the car. Its got plenty of room for improvement. its a 1967 chevelle with a cam only lq9 with stock 317 heads. 1.55 60ft, 7.17 @95 in the 1/8th. And an 11.37 to the 1/4. I need a different convertor, it hits 6,000 really quick and quits pulling after that. But all in all it was a successful first outting.

Cam specs, weight & did you raise the compression ratio?
That's pretty impressive with stock 317s.

You should post this in the carbed section also.
