28's leaving still .soon to be 30s.... 3200 lbs with a 52 front 48 rear. even on the rears. the front is drver heavy but not much we can do about it.

on the 1.20 the fronts were about 1.5' in the air. on a 1.25 or so the would be 6" or so off the ground. very soft looking leave.

I have read some. for us the suspention and travel limiters really dictate how hard it looks like its leaving. once we got it to leave like we wanted we just use delay in our 2nd kit ot keep it under control.

Damn you bastards are fast......

I wonder if 53/47 wouldn't allow you to leave under even more power while still allowing the weight to transfer? Have you guys played with the weight and balance?

we have not had a transfer or wheelie issue at all. we have it all in in by .4 seconds. LOL can't get much under that. but once we get more jet in it we may have to adjust.

the way the convertor acts. .3 or less would be spliting hairs. it would cause more problems than its worth. we are going to go bigger on stage 1 and shoot for a .7 or so for #2.

obviously you guys are faster than me but why not use larger pills and a progressor?

you guys are already knocking the doors down on the 330-660 for a SBC nitrous car but i think with out the progressor you're leaving some on the table... just a thought

what rear ratio you guys use?

theres no way to progress the n2o solenoid when you dont even have a fuel solenoid. it would be a tuning nightmare. remember they are dry nitrous.
