Default power problems

Went to the track last night
and ran really bad
First run was the best of the night
60' 2.10
330 5.75
1/8th 8.6 84mph
1000 11.16
1/4 13.26 mph 107
My problem is I was running 13.4 with headers and exhaust no with heads/cam and DR I only run 13.2
What could be the problem is it running out fuel and that i run i short shifted every gear and it netted me the best time of the night

You're prolly out of injectors and you need to hook.
So for hooking I recommend LCAs with relocation bracket on low bolts. Experiment also with tire pressure. Removing the front sway helps a lot too (saves weight too )
