Default Think I am gonna juice up!but....

I am thinking about juicing my 99 SS M6. I think I want to use either a TnT F1 or A NX kit, either one will be a wet kit. Here are my existing mods:
*ARE stage 2 ls1 heads(dual springs and standard raised compression)
*ARE cam 226\234 .554\.575 112
*ARE oil pump
*LS6 intake
*NGK TR-55 plugs
*SVO 30lb injectors
*SLP 85mm MAF
*Ported TB
*Whisper airlid w/ K&N filter
*SLP CAI
*GRott 1.75 headers, O/R Grott 3 inch y-pipe, SLP LM cat-back
*Ram 6130/402 VDS clutch system with billet flywheel
*Moser 12 bolt with 4.10, 33 splines axles, HD posi, and T/A cover
*ED Wright tuning with 28 degrees timing at WOT
*BMr tubular subframe connectors
*Global LCA

I have been told to swap out my plugs for NGK-TR6s gapped to .030s, get a Walboro intake 340 fuel pump, and swap my 6130 disk to a 910. Any other recommendations would be really appreciated. My 99 SS has 19k on the the odometer with the stock shortblock. I really don't want to invest into a nitrous shortblock yet, because I am planning on a complete stereo upgrade, 6 point Wolfe cage with swing-out door bars, and some 15x10/15x3.5 skinnies with tires. I would like to run 100 shot. I thing 150 shot might be pushing the shortblock to much! I am currently at 414RWHP/387RWTQ on a conservative dyno, through full exhaust, through my 12 bolt and 4.10s, and stock weight plus the weight of the 12 bolt and SFC with chrome 17x11 AFS ZR1s with 315s out back!

Fuel pump! I tried running a 150 shot with with cam only and i was running insanely lean, and once I added a new fuel pump i picked up 4mph at the track.

Oops, should problably learn how to read. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" />

Do you plan on doing some serious drag racing? If so you might what to consider some more drivetrain upgrades. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Take the advice on the fuel pump. TR6's at .040 work fine or you could go tighter if you wanted. With 28* timing and bumped compression you are going to want to run a little race gas. Since you don't have anything to adjust your A/F for the gas you might need to experiment with different fuel jets than what are recommended with your kit.

13.1 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I did to to the track once. My first pass ever on slicks. I dumped the clutch at 4500 and hooked with a 1.7 60ft but then my tires broke loose and the *** end kicked out to 7 o'clock position and as I slammed 2nd it kicked back to 4 o'clock then straightened out. I ended up with a 12.4@114mph <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> My 2nd pass was the 1st round of eliminations, so I had no idea what to dial in at. I dialed in at 12.2. My opponent was a 2001 WS6 A4 that had run 4 mid 13s(13.4-13.6 ranges). He was dialed in at 13.3. We lined up and staged. blip blip blip and he is off....1.1 seconds later blip blip blip and I launch. This time I dumped it at 5000 and I felt like I got rear ended by a Hummer <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> . As I shift into 2nd I am just about at his door. 3/4 through 2nd I am 1-2 cars ahead. I slam third and I knew I was gonna break out by a lot. All of the sudden I feel like I am coasting and starting to slow down. For a second or to I thought maybe I broke something. I look back and the T/A is starting to gain. I look down....Damn I am in 5th. I pull it back to 3rd and stomp it again. I ended up about 1/2 car ahead of the T/A and ran 12.9@109mph with a 1.6 60ft. All in all I know the car can run 11s. All I have to do is get a clean pass and get my $hit together!
What fuel pump do you all recommend? I was debating on the ramchargers timing control unit too, or do you think I should just have a couple of degrees timing removed? I won't be running the nitrous very, much on the street because theres not much competition where I live. I would like to have as power NA as possible too. The 150 shot would make me to nervous. I think that would really be pushing it on the stock bottom end, no?
