my missing problem after 5000+rpms turned out to be spark blowout. I regapped the plugs and all is well now. No doubt the car is faster than N/A but i dont see this thing turning much more than maybe 112mph traps are so. 4th gear pulls just like it did when it was N/A. I've always had problems with the car when it was N/A, i changed injectors, maf, fuel pump, and everything i can think of and still it would run on most outings 103-105mph. in the dead heat of july here in louisiana it did run 108mph but that only happend that one particular day. I'm having to kill the car to get a 12 out of it.
I'm running:
60379 heads
rpm intake
tfs stage 1 w/ 1.7s
shorty headers
o/r exhaust
77mm pro-m maf
70mm tb
single belt novi w/ 2.75 pulley, powerpipe, stock crank pulley
3.73s
5-speed
30lb. injectors
3300lbs. with me in it.
6:1 fmu
24 degrees total timing
I'm at the end of my rope with this car, pretty much to the point that i lost intrest in it... i'm going to the track saturday and if it doesn't run at least 115mph it may take me over the edge.
any suggestions?
