Rev....

ive been on vacation, just got back. i dissagree with some of shaggy's suggestions, especially about putting an open spacer on a dual plane manifold....especially the performer. also i think the car could use a bigger exaust system, like 2.25"--2.5" pipes...no bigger. you know the 3.08 gears aint getting it, and no matter what gear you got, you will not get a 2-2.1 60 ft. time with a peg leg rear axle. the long runners on a 5.0 intake, fuel injection, and short headers will all contribute more to the low end torque than the setup you have, however its not a bad thing. you may want to check your initial and total timing. not enough timing will make your car suck top end, but i dont think you need some kind of msd or mallory setup with your combo. unless you are running a blower, nitrous, or high compression, the ignition you have now is plenty. put the lightest advance prings you can in the bottom of your distributor, get the timing in early, and run it up till it pings(be sure you know what that sound is like) and retard it until it just stops pinging. read your plugs. you can also get power out of jetting your carb if you know how. where are you launching your car at? if you hold the brake and give it too much rpm the body will rise and have to move further when the weight transfers on launch, thereby killing your 60ft. forget 2-2500 and try 1200 rpm launches. trust me on this one. still its 3.08s and peg leg......the best way to make a 300hp car launch like 150hp is with an open differential. i cant remember what you said the cam was...anyway.
