Thanks everyone, the car is 60' very well, how would you say a 7.50 1/8 mile @94 sound with a 1.77 60'.
Ive said from day one, these heads are going to hold me back. Ill get some vids uploaded, but its leaving hard and then falling on its face up top. COupled with 4th gear rejections constantly its getting irritating. Everyone is posting a million videos to facebook but that does me no good here lol.
I raced Blakern here on tech, it a turbo/stalled auto T/a. He was running 11.2`s@127. We raced and went door to door 1/8 mile then started pulling away hard top of third. Im happy with the 1/8th mile but its dead the rest, but still picked up 27mph on the big end. wtf?

he mentiones 200+IAT and KR and all of you just choose to ignore that and point him in different directions ? lol...
no wonder most of the cars around here run like dogs.
"IAT high, and KR through the roof... **** it, port the intake!"

I'd always be logging especially with high iat's, it could be detonating while yanking timing and you may not even hear it. Most cars it's audible, but you probably wont hear it with all the other noises these kinds of cars make taking off from a stop and the windows up plus exhaust.

any HPT logs we can see? Its falling on its face because of KR and timing being yanked. Could be numerous things causing KR

Your back half gain is actually pretty decent, especially for a heavy car... Your missing trap speed is coming from the 1/8.. You should easily be going 95-97 mph in the 1/8. I would definitely get the high IAT/KR issue resolved before you do anything else. Sure the heads are holding it back some but.... 27 mph on the back half shows its making some power... The power is just not coming in before the 1/8.. You may be losing mph on the 1-2 and 2-3 shifts.. Also what is the DA for the passes? What is the race weight?
I'd get it on the Dyno for testing and experimenting to see what it wants and see if its in the ball park.. I'm guessing you are around 450 rwhp right now..
I'd concentrate on getting it right, not just beating on it.
I know I have seen weird **** with my z06 that would cause huge losses in mph indicating a power problem, when it was actually a gearing problem and losing too much mph on shifts... You'd be surprised what lift shifts cost you for mph.
