Any videos of your car? Mind sharing info on your set up? I hope it leaves like yours! Almost ready for the track just waiting on front coil overs and swap out the plugs and hopefully i have good results to report back!

Speed Inc si5 cam ls6 intake hooker headers junk nos plate mwc fab 9 th400 with a junk B&m 3600 stall converter I had laying around no ac heat or carpet. Strange double adjustable coil overs on all 4 corners 3.90 gear. Tuned by ams performance. Car went 9.92 @ 134 on the pass before the converter let go. Best 1/8th mile pass was a 6.19 @ 108. I have a new converter in it now. Should go alot faster. I have a post in the fastest stock cube nitrous list.

That thing leaves nice! What rpm do you shift at? ever dyno? weight of car? if I'm a cam swap away from running close to that that will be next on the list lol. same rear and gear and stall speed as you. your making me anxious to finish this thing up and get to the track.

Thank you. I have alot of time in setting everything up. I work for a chassis shop part time and learned a ton from him over the past 5 yrs. Only thing u have over me is mwc arb. I run spohn drag sway bar.I shift at 6800. I had it on a mustang dyno a work and it made like 380 on motor sprayed it once to see where the afr was at and it was pig rich so we aborted the pull I swapped fuel jets and headed straight for the track with a box of spark plugs. I still have 8 degrees of timing pulled out also For the 150 shot. There's power left right there especially since I'm on c16. Car weighs 3200 without me in it.

My stall is a 4200 now. That 3600 stall converter hated life and I was forced to replace it. If this car goes a 5.9 to the 1/8th on the 150 shot. I will bump it to 250 and start going for the sbe record. I'll be at byron in a week or two. Lmk if ur interested in going. I'll give u a hand with ur car

!!!UPDATE!!!

Well finally got to the track, things did not go as planned but I'm still happy with it. First pass out went 11.098 at 120 with a 1.50 60'. On this pass the nitrous was shutting off at high rpm's so i had to adjust my window switch. Next pass was a little better i then changed my shift light to 6k instead of 6300. it still seamed like it was turning off before i shifted. so the next pass with the light set at 6k it went 11.056 i think it was at 121 with a 1.49. so at this point i already had i think it was about 4 passes. On my 5th pass it went 6.9, 11.029 at 122 with a 1.471 60' this was the best pass of the day i was happy that i got into the 6's but i think my bottle was finally getting tired on the big end. I went back out and each pass it got a little slower and my mph was dropping off by 2-3mph each run, bottle was getting empty =(.

Now that i got everything set up correct Im gonna go back out in a few weeks with a full bottle and hopefully go 10.99 thats the goal with this bolt-on 510/510 lift cam 806 headed car lol. I'm really thinking about swapping the cam out but idk what i want to do next? maybe up it to a 200 shot. Kinda bummed out but its a consistent 11.0 car haha. I did make a pass on motor and it went 12.8 at i think 109 for anyone that was curious. The converter is also set up for a 200 shot kinda wish i went with a 4000 nitrous converter but it is what it is.

To be honest i didn't really pay close attention to the wide band. Its somewhere between 11.5-12.2 i think. I know i should have paid more attention to it but it didn't cross my mind. I did pull a plug too see what it looked like it looked ok i guess, there was drive time on them. Not exactly sure how to read the plugs. when i go back I'm bringing a few sets of plugs anyways. I need to find someone to help me out with reading them and the tune up most likely. I also have timing pulled threw hp tuners so thats another problem there i don't have the software it's on the list of things to buy.

wide band will only give u a ballpark idea. Need to tune off the plugs.... let me know next time u go and I'll see if I can make it up there with my car and give u a hand. If u dropped .1 off ur 60ft u will be in the 10s easy.

!!!Update!!! Went to the track again Finally made it in the 10's!!!! went 10.91 with a crappy 60' 1.50 spinning and nitrous turned of for a split second at the top of second, off the trailer. Next pass car hooked best 60' ever 1.44 nitrous was being funny again turning on and off it felt like. Went 11.02 at 116. If i can figure out why it is turning off or loosing power and make a clean pass i think it might have a 10.7x in it! Not to shabby for bolt-ons and a 510 lift cam!

No fpss, Im guessing it might be a flow problem. When i put the bigger jets for 200 shot it was real bad, I then went back to the 62n 33f and it only did it a little. i wasn't able to catch a glimpse of the wide band while its happening. I checked my nitrous filter to see if it was clogged and it was pretty clean on the inside. my next guess might be the solenoid going bad? Not sure wanna do some more testing. My msd digital window switch turns the nitrous off at 6400 i shift at 6000. so I'm thinking wot switch or maybe the solenoid. But before that i want to confirm the air fuel ratio. Any other ideas?
