yep i got it fixed......found out there were a couple of issues. 1. The bracket holding up my plug wires broke and two of them fell on the headder and burnt all they way through to the core. (Which explains why the car was trying to stall after that last run.) Second the passangers side head gasket was bad and was bleeding compression off of the #2 cylinder into the cooling system. I pulled the heads off and went thinner on the gasket so now I have 13.9:1 instead of 13.2. Also I put ARP Pro Series Head Studs on it and I made a custom set of the 11mm Moroso Ultra 40 sleeved wires for it. I've been driving it around and its running great. I already put about 150 street miles on it. Plus it feels wayyy faster than before even with four mufflers and only 30 degrees of timing. My buddy has one of those GTech things and I tried it on street tires. It said I went a 11.87 @ 127.4 in street trim with a mild tune. So well see what happens friday and saturday.

quik, nope, it was for ken from east side, but its been moved to another date so i will be there all day.
im thinking we are going to do a run on motor, log the new tune see how she is.
the car is close to max rpm on motor right now and it still has a loose motor converter in it so we will probably pull a degee or 2 of timming, hit it with a 50 shot and log it, see what it does and where the rpm is going through, then bump it to a 75 if its not reving to high then to 100 if we still have room. im thinking rpm wise 75 is all we will be able to spray and even then i think she will be singing 6,500 or so. im thinking the car if she hooks should run high 10's with a 50 shot once we gear it and hit it with 125 or 150 i think 10.3-10.5 are in the bag
