Q jet Question

Mark Callanan · 09-10-2010, 07:51 PM

I had a new Magna Fuel system installed on a 69 Camaro stocker
I ran a test and tune today and the car was off as far as ET
I checked the fuel pressure and it was at 3 pounds
I brought it up to 6 pounds and the car stumbled on the launch and the 1-2 shift on the next run
I had always thought the fuel pressure for a Q JET should be at 7 pounds or so
Any thoughts on what might be causing this?
The car is very rich as you can smell the fuel all around the car when it is run
