ATap Gurus, I think I am dialed in well, just help me out please The LTrims were around 6-8% with the MAFT settings at 0 so I put the base to the 1st setting which is 5% rich. That was the way to go, because the Ltrims went down, sometimes negative numbers, sometimes positive, but always close to 0. I was happy. With WOT still at 0 I made some 60-100 MPH blasts and the car was running well. My timing stayed at 30.0 degrees almost all the time, the lowest it dropped to was 29.5 degrees. I got no knock retard at all on about half of the runs, on a few I did get some, but a very small amount. Sometimes right after I nail it and it kicks down I would get 1.0 KR and then it quickly decreases and goes to 0. I am not worrying about that, as if I am seeing 29-30 degrees of timing I don't think having 1.0 degree of KR is hurting me at all. What do you guys think? My 02s are in the .880 range normally. They get as low as .87X when I firs nail it, then spend most of their tim in the .880-895 range. So right now I have the base at the 1st click and WOT at 0. Should I leave it like that? The car seemed to be running very strong. These runs were all made with 93 octane gas, its about 50 degrees with high humidity, and the cut-out capped if that matters.
Any input would be great, even if its just telling me to leave it alone. I 'think' I finally have this car running up to snuff.

Re: ATap Gurus, I think I am dialed in well, just help me out please The numbers look great to me!
Here is what I typically shoot for:
O2 sensors between 890-900
KR = 0 deg
Timing = 28 deg minimum
LTrims = close to 0 as possible
Coolant Temps = less than 185F
Nail all those, and the car should be optimized.

Re: ATap Gurus, I think I am dialed in well, just help me out please Great, thanks for the feedback! You better help me out since I have 'your' cam. :-)
BTW, since I went a 12.11 with some pinging and 52lb front wheel/tires, I think I have a real shot of goign 11.6 with my next round of mods. They include skinnies which are on the car now, that should get me to 11.98 or so. I have Mac headers on the way, hopefully good for .20 reduction, that would put me in the 11.78 range, and then upgrading this baby Vigilante 2800 to a Vig 3600, that may net me a tenth? I think I have a real shot of going 11.6s in a cam only car, that would rock!
