Oops- I forgot and you reminded me.

I was also at 16* initial timing, and tried 14 and 15* also.

The car just didn't seem to have what it did before. Last night, I wento out with the Nitto's (since I had to try them) and with the Holley, at 44 / 37 I could chirp 2nd powershifting. With the stocker back on, they lit up for about 18." I guess I had too much fuel going to it.

I'm taking it to the track tonight with the tools to swap the regulator, and I'll try both, just to see.

Thanks, Dark- I'll try your readings and see how it works. How much difference in performance did you get from stock to 41 psi?
