car made a best of 322/306

started the runs aroung 3k to keep it out of the converter and pulled to 6600 (power wasnt really falling off)


ended up with 78's in the front and 88's in the rear for a 12.8-13.2 afr

and the engine liked 36* total all in by 2800

All on 91 as i havnt switched over to e-85 yet

pretty happy with the results there is still a little left with better exhaust, still have 10/40 break-in oil and 180*t-stat. and i know that the trans and converter are eating alot.
