tuning, E.T.
tuning, E.T. Car ran GREAT for a lid, filter car.....laid down 332/343 SAE Corrected. After LT's, ORY it ran a little better, not much. I understand that the car should be dyno tuned after the LT's and ORY. But after the TR 224 cam was put in, the car ran like pigshit. Felt like it lost power, and slower cars (friends) were now beating me. I had the PCM tuned by mail. I think the guy did a shitty job-if he did anything lol. Do you think the tuning is the problem? I am definately going to have the car dyno tuned here soon. I think with the great numbers I put down to begin with and the mods I have now, there is no reason to be putting down 390-400. Do you guys agree? Also, I was wondering what type of E.T. you all would predict. I'll be on a set of MT Drag Radials, so assuming I cut a 1.7XX, do you think I could see a 11.99 or faster?

with correct tuning, 11s could be possible providing everything else works correctly (hooking good, shifting at right rpm, etc etc). you'd need somewhere between 340-360 rwhp IMHO to run 11s, depending on raceweight. When I first got into the 11s in my Nova I ran in -1070 DA air, and the 355 put down 327 rwhp corrected.

Thanks......power shouldnt be a problem. I'm just wondering how the MT's are going to hook up. I've heard nothing but good about the MT drag radials, and I've never known MT to make a bad tire. Thanks again
