jderry's 1996 Camaro

[jderry]

So I knocked off at least a second in the 1/4 with a 100 shot and the yank converter.
Any guesses on ET with a 150 shot assuming it hooks well?

[Nocooler]

another 2-3 tenths and 2-3mph

[dawdaw]

what did you run like 11. teens and were spinning last time? IF you hooked and hit all 150 out of the hole easy, easy 10.70's. but if you spun like you did last time a little, i'd say 10.90's to 11.0's, with a little better mph.

How are you pulling timing? and are you using a progressive and/or window switch?

Mallory 685 for timing.
It spun some and walked out. The track wasn't too great since it had rained earlier in the morning that day.
I am trying to get a closeish race going with my dad.
I asked him to not use the trans brake.
It may be some what close

Don't get greedy. You probably have another few numbers and a mph or 2 left in the tune up on the 100 shot.

[jderry]

Where is a good place to start?

[jderry]

Any advice on tuning?
I am shooting to be at the next NO ET, as this past one was kinda crap.

Put new plugs in it in the pits, make a pass, shut the engine off as soon as you can safely, Either tow it back to the pits or change the plugs on the return road. Thats the only way your going to get data is a good plug reading.

Work on getting the car to 60' on the 100 jets too. If its not hooking on the 100 jets your not going to accomplish anything going to the larger jet.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

exactly make adjustments to get the car to 60' the best it can at the given power level. you could try adding a degree of timing as well until it stops picking up then back it off again, just make sure you don't get to agressive and make one adjustment at a time and record the changes.

[jderry]

Alright, have you guys been to Milan on a T&T night recently?
I wonder how they are with tech, I don't have a roll bar or cage.
I think if track prep is good and I heat the tires up well this time it should hook.

[FASHOOTER]

No et tech is pretty played back......but unless u enjoy sitting I line for hours at a time to run I would go another time to test car

[chrizar]

test and tunes can even suck, last time i went we waited over 30 mins and it was hot as balls out. tech is picky about stupid shit, like the battery having a tie down etc.

[jderry]

My car is all mechanically sound, just may not be up to par with added safety equipment. NO ET tech asked me if I had a helmet and that was all.

[jderry]

I have a lot planned for the winter, already accumulating parts.

I am saving money for an RPM 4l60e
I really want to get my 60' times down.

My suspension setup might need some help

QA1 R with 300lb springs up front What is a good setting to start with?

Stock springs and shocks in the back Not sure what to replace with
Stock Torque Arm Going Adjustable this winter

Stilll have both sway bars Any real gains by removing?


Suspension Adjustments Going to be needing some advice on this

3.42 gears Thinking 3.90





Also looking to upgrade my fuel system
I have new red top SVO injectors.

Thinking a racetronix 255 with hot wire kit and the stainless lines from our sponsor.

[JoeliusZ28]

if youre keeping OD and converter lockup, get a 9" and 4.30s

The 255 + EAA combo is a great setup... i recommend going the full length of the car like i did. Go heavy on the fasteners!

As far as sway bars go you will weight transfer better with the front bar removed, plus it weighs a decent amount. I would keep a rear bar though if not upgrade it.
