Now the car is fine I could not get the car to cut out.
Sweet

Also I would wire the BAP 100% on all the time. The tape on the chip is a great idea, I used to use a nice decal or something like that.

What did you gap the plugs at?

Do you have a fuel pressure gauges in the car?

have you logged pressure drop across the injectors?

are you running a wideband in the car?

do you have a dyno graph that clearly shows the A/F ratio?
Yeah I know, thanks!

You want the gap as wide as possible with out "blow out"

Mine are at .043 right now and the ignition system is stock. If you having problems with blow out at .028 its time to upgrade your ignition system.

T trim 6 rib with overdrive crank. I talked with my tuner and he told me we were at 17psi on the pull where we made 555/504. He also told me he can get me close to 600 if we play with it. He told me 600 for sure on race gas

you could get to over 600 if you went to a bigger blower pulley and went to some blower cams. 270's are not Stage I's, .55" of lift isn't a stage I cam.

nice numbers though, I think my estimate was 550-560rwhp on a consevative tune.

innovative west 10% overdrive . There are a few guys who picked up 50rwhp with edelbrock intake 15psi and stock heads. There is also a n/a guy with heads and cams he picked up 45rwhp with the edelbrock intake. So if I want 600rwhp on a super safe drive like stock tune I will spend the money on the edelbrock.
