Going rich coming off the 2 step

[littlemanjoe]

When I let go of the brake and the car comes off the two step, the O2's show way rich. They go down to 9ish or 10ish then go up to 12's towards the bottom of second gear.

Is this normal or is there a way to lean out the carbs a touch at the launch?

My car has Holleys on it.

Thanks,

What are the O2's showing while on the two-step?

I have the same issues on/coming off the two-step.

I wish I could help you with your tune on your carb. I use a Holley TBI & have done some tuning to help with the situation & it paid off with some pretty good gains in the 60'.

When we 1st started with our new combo 2 years ago, TBI & a ProCharger. We had crappy 1.45 60's & we saw the O2 issues in the data logs.

While our TBI functions differently than a carb. I added fuel to the table while on the two-step. My 1st change got us 1.35 60's. We have continued to make changes in that area & have gotten into the 1.2x 60's.

Our data logs still show lean on the limiter & fat coming off. It has significantly improved both on & coming off the limiter. Still trying to work the issue.

Fuel level control would be the place to start

You might try some whistles in the carbs.
