Oh man, you certainly have the torque dialed up! Nice work. You going to be able to turn up the “upper end” HP a bit more? That looks like a partial throttle organism!! It is going to be mean.

Right now theres nothing to turn up, its at 25psi, 10* of timing. I need to make hits and see where the car will land. All I want this year is 8.5 index.

At this rate the car will land two counties over from the launch

It has been a mad scramble, but it has all finally come full circle.

First passes 10.9 @ 127mph on 3psi #2step #dragracing

It was not a day to go full nutters or set the world on fire. It was a day to Test AND Tune. Learned the following.

1. Need bigger radiator and fan
2. Need bigger trans cooler or relocate it. Might fab a front mount. Under car has a lack of airflow
3. Car does not require a lot of power to go fast.
4. Holley is stupid easy to tune and I love the platform
5. Havent done this since 2023, I feel whole again
