    Tuning on start up for Novi 1K

    What do you reccomend? I have the 76mm C&L with the proper flow tube for the 42lb injectors i just ordered. I have a boost sensitive fuel pressure regulaor coming as well. I'll have the stock pullies on and i hope that will keep me happy for a while.:D
    I have the walbro 255 pump, and i have my timing @ 36 total. (yes i know i need to change the timing)

    Thanks

    Although I am collecting parts for a 12.5:1 393 :D

    42# inj. and 255 with stock boost level is pretty much overkill even w/o the FMU. You will have to pull back the timing a bit though, if you're not set on a custom tune you may want to look into a MSD BTM where you can dial it in to pull timing according to #'s of boost, just some food for thought and TTT for ya.

    i think it is overkill as well but i figured that i will plan for the future. Will i have drivability issues with the 42lbers? i don't plan on using the fmu. I'll dyno it when i change the pulley and try a powerpipe. will my 255 pump and the 42's hang on to 8-10 lbs and my current engine combo?

    thanks again

    The smallest one. 499/510 lift i think is. 221/225@.050

    Do you like yours? i'm pretty content with mine except i'm rich @ idle.

    I like mine but I have not used it with a supercharger.
    I still have some issues to work out with my motor first.
