Try it man. If it runs good like that let it eat. Thats a heck of a squirter but oh well. Glad you got it figured out. Glad we could point you in the right direction.

Hell yeah dude thats great. I would try the squirters in every combo you can think of including playing with a acc pump cams. Find the mildest combo that doesnt affect performance and that should keep you from wasting a lot of fuel.

Lol. I swear my 96 firebird has a 11.1 cr 406 with profiler 210's 640 lift 252° @ .050 hyd roller, a super victor manifold and 850 quick fuel hp carb and it gets almost as good of gas mileage as my 97 jeep cherokee which gets around 17mpg. I love my wideband.
