ok sooo upgrade some more stuff and fixed a couple of things..



first off no i dont think the injectors are\should be out. even though they should be close. the conveter is way to loose (basically its pushing through the converter) it flashes up to around 5900rpm... and the dyno runs were made with the converter unlocked.



secondly going through the vacum lines the found a kink on the line to the Hobbs switch for one of the pumps and a big tear in the vac line for the meth...



still need to do some log runs and see what its doing and then get a complete retune



i replaced the meth tank with a new bigger 3gal tank with a sump in it.





the tank upgrade the feed to the pump from a 1/4" to 3/8"











also ordered some new tall valve covers to clear the rockers better and try a new vac system on it.

(also required longer wires...)











comparison..







on the engine









also got some new 345/40/17 toyo TQ's

they seem to hook rather well
