I've been doing some more tuning on the truck. I know some guys were interested in following the progress. Now that track season is just about here I'm getting really excited to try it out for some real concrete non-seat of the pants times. Here's a link to blow by blow action from the very...

I did a lot of research into blow thru carbs before I built the 650. The 750's and 800's have driveability issues like what you expirienced with having to run big primary jets .......unless you go to annular venturis. CSU carbs was very helpful by the way. Just like they said, this 650 is...

It's been awhile since I last reported on the Truck. I have been thru a few trials and trubulations with it ....but ..hey, that's the way it goes. The clincher is.....I was only using the primary two barrels of the carb and didn't know the secondaries were not opening. :confused: My fault on...

I got the alky flowing last night. It has been raining in torrents here so no super duper power pulls yet. Dialed my timing back 5* not wanting to take any chances.....human ears are NOT good knock sensors. A really cool thing that I didn't plan on........I mounted the Alky jug right behind the...

I'm dialing back my timing as we speak

Razor? I have a couple of burning questions. 1) Is there a check valve in the alky filter you sell? I noticed a directional arrow stamped on the side and wondered. I have yet to take either one apart 2) When spraying meth into a carb..... (if the droplets evaporate completely there is...

Hey Volvoman! Oh.... but they do need it! they just don't know yet. The disbelievers help keep "our little secret" safe. Blow thru's are getting more popular. What kind of car is that 383 in? I'm getting excited to crank up the boost on the truck. Got the jug and lines leak tested, and...

Ooooowch! So sorry man. That was a nice ride. yikes!, they say hindsight is 20-20. No plastic see thru's here. do have plastic non-see thru nitrofil center hung floats, jet extensions....blah blah more specs below Engine........................355 4blt SBC, self ported & milled...

Thanks for the encouragement. Glad to be different. The Track doesn't open for a while,...... allows for lots of good tuning and feedback time before hand. Hope it all holds together!.

Wouldn't have a clue if it wasn't for you... hey, that rhymes. Have you done any blow thru's?

Yes I will spray straight meth. Not sure on power. I am limited by cast pistons and a carburetor. If I can get this 4500 lb hunk thru the 1/4 mi traps in 12.5 seconds I will be happy ....... shooting for 550 hp I mounted my 2.5 gallon alky jug next to and underneath my battery tray...

I know this is not a Buick related topic, and hope you guys are open to seeing my stuff. Alky is the topic, and I have learned so much by installing it on my Talon...... it caused me to turbo my work truck .......and .....now install alky on the turbo'd work truck. The addiction appears to be...

I used to run 119 mph 1/4 mi. traps @ 25 psi on race gas. I thought that was so fast!. I was always sad to turn it back down to 17 psi and retune when the race gas was gone. Now I see 122 mph 1/4 mile traps @ 35 psi with alky, and I criuse around town, drive to the beach, grocery store, go on...

Methanol is isued to make Bio-diesel. Separates out good stuff from bad stuff I guess. Bio-D guys are coming around wanting to buy a gallon or two for their homemade refineries and stills. Their tailpipe exhaust make me hungry, smells like home-cookin'! :wink:

So I know 64 'f intake temps @ 26 psi is cool......what was your outside ambient air temp?
