Let me know how it goes, I did see a "0" pump on rj if you think thats the fix, but I think its something else. Have you ran with this converter before ?

Not with this converter. I talked to James Monroe this morning and I went over everything I have checked and done. He said that I have covered all the basics. I'm gonna take out my 7al3 box tonight and put in a spare 7a box to see what happens.

He didnt think it was the pump did he ?

James did suggest the pump could be flowing too much, but the MSD box change will tell if its fuel or spark related. The car never really ran what I thought it should run. Maybe I have a weak ignition problem but running VP113 it wouldn't show up. Now switching to alcohol with alot more fuel volume a weak ignition might not keep up. The engine doesn't bang or pop just really sluggish coming up on the converter. The best E.T. with a carburetor was 8.89 @149. Should be running 8.45 to 8.50 @ 155.

Follow up on my 1060 terminator system. After several weeks of checking everything possible with the fuel system, my problem turned out to be a converter that was too tight. I had the converter loosen up to 6150 and it works like a champ. Second weekend out I won the Electronics race at one of our local tracks. 5.19@132mph in 5700 DA. Not too bad for a 468!

great job !
thanks for letting us know what it was, I been wondering :D

Hard to beat a good 468 for the money to build them, what weight car is yours ?

I don't no what the weight is yet David, I haven't been on scales yet but I definately like the car now. First dragster, always had door cars, but I will never go back. I think it has alittle more in it with some more tuning. Ordered a EGT today to help. But for now I have a 85 pill in the barrel valve and 38 jets in the nozzles with 28% leakdown. Leaves hard and pulls like a SOB in high gear. 1.16 60ft.
