Thanks Glenn,

This is not my car, but a friends who is not a Class Racer member and cannot post here. It was my idea to post because he's is frustrated and I knew you guys could help.

I know the engine has been dyno tested, but not flogged and I'm not familiar with the data.

Because of the small carburetor I think the Super Victor intake is too much, and he's going to try the smaller Victor at the track.

The fuel delivery theory has been adequately addressed, and I agree the 2.77 low gear and 4.89 rear are correct for the combination, also shifting at 6,000 seems to make sense.

Thanks to everyone for the thoughts, but if there are more ideas, I'm all ears.

He's only looking to go 10.40s or 50s.
