that is a nasty set up, i think that you should invest in a bottle heater.... they help hold good pressure the whole way down the track..... I spray a 85 to a sohc, i think you should spray more then that...... just my 2 cents...

nice. get a heater, as i would think you'd have more mph with that set up, especially with the weight. definately good for another couple of tenths i would think once you run it more.

your 22's aren't helping either. well at least your not breaking axles with them.

You definitely need a bigger slick, and a botle heater would do wonders. I had a 50 shot on a 92 CX street car with a GSr motor and it went 12.0@113. the bottle pressure is definitely holding you up.

it's amazing how easy the 11's are to hit these days. think like 5 years back when 13's were amazing!!! i'll hit 11's someday when 9's are common, damn technology.

good times and i also feel that your really low bottle pressure was hurting you.
