yea he was running like a 108% duty curve. alot of the problems when he raced was his driving. i'm trying to give him some pointers to get a better 60'. so we'll see what the car does in the spring.

Sounds like his tune is really rich.

I agree. I have 3:91 also and they are fun while playing around on the streets. If I had it to do over again I would have a bought engine bolt on instead. Even with D.R. and a good burn I still spin and all I have is a Svede, LTs w/catless mids a home made P/P T.B. and a tune that I have done myself on a slipping clutch.
