Going to idle w/fi changes a lot from carbs...try to find a racer with the same set-up,you could wind up 1-1 or close

You can install an electric leanout......turn it on when you go on the stop.

Experiment with pills to see what runs clean at somewhere around 4000 and once you have that done you can run your injection just like a carb.

Thats what I did and it worked well for me . I used a .050 pill in my leanout if I recall right.

Most people go to an idle with injection and if that works for you fine.....

I killed a second to go 8.90....and had close to 2 seconds stop time usually and used the leanout all the time.

One race the car was not responding to t-stop changes right.....I went down to 4 cars anyway..

I discovered the coil for the electric leanout had burned out and the leanout was not opening and that was why my t-stop time inputs were not following as they should have..

I have a Terminator on my dragster now.....never installed the leanout yet...mostly bracket race with it...

I have a electric lean-out on it with a .40 in it. Just like to throw something in the ole pit and see how we all look at it. More than likely will test and throw 1.75 in for a starter and then a change to get the multiplier and give them a whirl.
