It was 70 degrees - My thoughts are I was reading too much into the bar change for the third pass... I believe the tires just began to come back in. The track surface was poor, but I suspect the tires need to be hit harder and the shocks tightened up. First two passes were with the links in the upper holes...partner failed to get a good video of the first two runs.

I may try upper holes, after i get my car settled down, with new engine...not convinced it'll help me, but you never know... My shocks are just 3 way adjustables, set at 50/50, and fronts are same, set at 80/20...and it seems to work...very consistent 60ft's... and comes up quite a bit....this is 462'', 4.11 gear, 4200 8'', 2400rpm footbrake, @ 3550#s 1.45-1.46 on this pass... best is 1.440 at night...and Pheonix Bias plys

What are you using for a fuel filter , before the pump? I thought about this...

Not using one Brent. I use a funnel with a fine ss mesh screen when pouring the cell.

I use one too... just wasnt sure if i needed to put one , in line, when i change pumps... i have 2 pumps on car(holley's in to a 'Y') but its not legal. Danny Ashley said not to run one, either. Are you 8AN to pump, or 10AN? I have fuel cell, with foam...as long as foam is good, should be ok...far as i know, its not breaking down... ive never run anything but race fuel in it...been in car since 2002... I have a 280BG pump, but hate to put it in car, worried it may be troublesome...Gonna save my $ and get a 275 Magna Fuel ...i have holley Volumax regulator...

brent flynn · 03-16-2014, 01:24 PM

So, are you running a filter before carb, then?

HandOverFist · 03-16-2014, 01:25 PM

Yeah, 10AN to pump and 8AN the rest of the way. No filter at all anywhere in the system.

brent flynn · 03-16-2014, 01:28 PM

Cool...i have pretty much everything i need to switch to 10AN out of cell, to the pump... then ive got most everything i need to finish #8 line to front... i may need a fitting or 2, but, will figure it out, as i change stuff over. I figured i'd test with the system thats in place ... One thing at a time...hehe

Is this not a filter, before the pump? Did you remove it?
