Questions out of left field:

1) is that sound at the end of the runs your fuel pump? If so, what kind is it?

2) is your cage legal for faster than 8.5? I'm very confused on what ETs require the "funny car" style cage...

3) What RPMs do you cruise at on the freeway with that glide, and what diameter are your tires?

Yes I have a Magnafuel 750 and it's pretty loud. It only runs when racing or comes in under boost on the street. Car street drives on a bosch 044 and it's quiet.

Cage is only good for 8.5 I was being sneaky lol Funny car cage is required for 8.49 and faster.

I can run 70~75mph at about 27~2800. 3.23 gear and 28'' tire.

Still running the 10 bolt. I paid a guy in Colorado well over a year and half ago to do the housing and get the parts and he never got it done. I will be seeing him soon...

Why not close the gap to 18-20?

Why close the gap if the bigger gap is firing fine now on the new coils? Wider gap = more complete burn.

Either that and/or combined with adjust dwell. That may have helped some.

He was saying he had issues with it blowing out on the Holley and truck coils. I was asking why he didn't just close the gap on that setup rather than buys new coils. Just curious, not telling him what he should have done.

My point was I never had any problem firing a .025-.026" gap on 25 psi with a factory ecu and coils but my holley would lay over at .018-.020" gap with the stock coils past about 23psi. You dnt really notice it the car would just hit a wall and stop making power. The new coils are firing to 26 psi at .020" gap but think they are starting to run out of juice after that. I lost 2mph as the air got better then ran same mph after I backed boost down. That's how it was acting before. Now Im going to start playing with the dwell setting.
