Sounds like a pretty damn stout combo so far. Progressive controller?

Looks very similar to the combo I used to run except the stand alone. I never had an issue with it. Well, except the one time when it broke 7 teeth off the ring gear in the Moser 12-Bolt. I hit the 250hp shot right out of the hole.

Like I said I used TR8's, 42# Green Top Injectors, NX Direct port (250hp Shot), and a Granatelli 255lph pump. I ran the fuel side of the direct port right off the fuel rail with an accumulator to help with the lean spike on the initial hit. My short block was stock bore with Diamond Pistons, Lunati Rods, and stock crank. The rest of the engine was stock heads with 918 springs and a MS3 cam with the 113 LSA. I never had a issue with the engine. I hit the full 250hp shot right out of the hole with no progressive controller. I think if I would have went any higher it would have shook the head and blew the gasket. My computer tune was dead on and I also used a Ramchargers timing tuner because I had the computer tuned for a 150hp shot. Anything above than and I used the timing tuner to pull additional timing. I also ran it on 100 octane.
