Default Quick fuel jet question

Heading to the track tonight, test and tune. Right now the A/F is pegged at 10/1 with a 62N and 41F jet. How much better will a 38F jet help the rich condition? And quess on how much this might change the A/F ratio or HP? Right now it puts out an additional 115 rwhp. Thanks, I'm off to have the bottle topped off. I'll be back shortly an expect some answers. LOL

The fuel jet for the plate a 150hp shot is 38. So you should be good to go.

Had the nitrous set to come at 3500 instead of 4k as you know Larry. It dead hooked for about ten feet and then blew the tires off. Once it did that, it pulled the old two step. Went to 2nd then to first then to second again. The mph wasn't to bad considering (119) but the et sucked. I then tried a motor pass and it was slow also, do to the crappy air.
I did learn one thing though. Never go to Real Street Drag night. What a cluster **** that turned out to be. 5 hrs. in the staging lanes for two runs. It was the worse unorganized track program I have ever seen. Oh well, there's always next time. Time for a

No wide band, but thats on my shopping list before this fall when it cools off some. I have a feeling its still to rich, even with the change in the fuel jet. Plus it's time for some drag shocks and springs for the front. I have no weight transfer with the lowering springs.

yep... a would say a little suspension work is needed. RSD the track is normally set on kill, so if you had issues the car will most likely need some help.

I should have your ext. next week, so when you stop in we can talk suspension.

Sounds good Larry. A lot of breakage last night along with the confusion. Even the guy running the staging lanes was having it out with other track officials including one of the announcers on how long lane 4 and 5 had been waiting. Enough ranting though, learned my lesson.
ps They call one or two hundred a money race?
