higher compression nightmare!
Few months ago, i go to the local speed shop
to mill my edelbrock head. The compression went from 9.1:1 to 10:1. Then the car run like if there was water in the tank! I heard anormal sound from the pipe when flooring. I decided to do few test and tune session to adjust fuel press.. as i raise fuel press up (38psi-70psi!!!) the car gain 0.5 seconde and 4.5 mph. The car do his best at 70 psi. Unfor tunately the fuel reglator screw didnt go any farther. What s the deal!?!? i ve never heard that a naturally aspirated 302 could be running with 70 psi of gas press. All problems are now solved but i just would like to know why the car need that much fuel. thank for helping SC edel.head, e-303, cobra intake, pipe, 1.7 RR 24 lbs inj, 190 lph fuel pump, C&L 73mm maf |
