DON'T FORGET TO PRIME THE ALKY SYSTEM.
i made that mistake and my number six rod didn't forgive me for it. :013:

This might be the best advice you get.

Absolutely. Hit my test button in the staging lanes every time before I make a run.

It really does help when the chip matches the injectors.

Yes ! it really dose. I took the car for a test tonight when the rain letup and the pavement was dry... What a difference the 02'w where perfect the BLM's are perfect the car hauled ass at 15 psi tomorrow I'm going to keep bringing the boost up In increments until I get to the goal of 23-24 psi..... I have fallen in love with her twice over. Also that tapping noise has seemed to disappear at least after my few blasts I took... starting to wonder if injectors where the cause. Tomorrow I will find out when it idles again but as of tonight that noise is no where to be found.
 
I cant wait for arm drop now .... last arm drop my car had big tuning problems now I'm ready to come play :}}}}}}}}}}}  :cheers:   

Ready for Armdrop...or a quarter mile blast...is a mistake I see made time and time again.I hear these guys all the time saying that they lay into on the street and the 02 numbers look good. Wrong. These guys aren`t holding the loud pedal to the floor for a full quarter mile...just a few hundred feet...and get lulled into a sense of security. Make a full quarter mile blast at WOT with PL and what you`ll see is the 02`s getting leaner the further you go down the track...and that;s why I said we`d test your car for short runs and then check your PL log. I`d recommend making a WOT blast for a quarter of the track....then half track...and then three quarter. If all looks good...then you could make a full WOT pass. There`s a Mix N Match next Friday at SMP...and I`ll be there to help if you want it. You can then go to Armdrop and let er rip!

Hey quick question for you guys how do I get the old oil cooler of my car and will the filter bolt up the same way once removed. the reason I ask is because the Fbody rad conversion is going in. Sick of the car running almost to 200.
Tranny cooler is going in as well.  :rock:
Stratman: Is it even running?

There is a large filter adapter nut in the middle that holds the cooler to the pump.  It has a hex head you should be able to see it from underneath.
