Grumpy runs so fast because he has indexed & cut spark plugs.
He also has the brakes set up for "no drag" when the brake pedal is released.
The wheel alignment is also set with the front of the car up in the air like its going down the track. Toe-in with the nose of the car up is just dragging the tires down the track.
The headers have been drilled out on the bottom side so they can be ported where they are welded to the "log" and then re-welded back up with a plug.
The front wheel bearings have been loosened to eliminate drag.
The rear end carrier and pinion bearings been loosened so they don't have any "drag" on them also.
EVERYTHING that flows air has been ported and gasket matched PERFECT for maximum airflow.

gave ya the whols set up in the car... IF ya can't tune it stick with a stocker car
I tried 40#'s of boost but I could only change the timing to 29* I kept my 02's at 710 with c116 and alky.......... Car took of like a bat out of hell till the top of first gear then I heard a CLANKING SOUND. Now I don't have any oil pressure and the engine won't spin over... I can't figure out what's wrong... Do you think my head gaskets are blown up?
JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
sounds like its time to go to autozone and get one of them high performance crate motors

Some of you look desperate asking for specific tune info. What fun is it to try to duplicate exactly what someone else has done to their car? Run 9s your own way.

I saw Dan and the GN at NED last night. To all the have never seen the car I can tell you it's a real driver and just a handfull of gauges. Only giveaway is the huge tires, they do fill the wheel wells. You guys are never going to get a straight answer on what his tune is and it really doesn't matter because it would probably only work on for them. Hey Russ, I'm saving for that trans..
hey !!! I can do "multiple quotes":biggrin:
we are making a few changes for Reynolds .. starting with the cage
we only had those tires on for when we were weighing the car .. Normally we run the 275/60/15s .. then it "blends" in

Sorry for the young Questions
WHY NOT run the car with straight 11 or 12 inch slicks besides the “Street trim bragging stuff”?
And if you have run it with slicks
What has been the deference in numbers?

Because it's a street car and street cars don't run slicks
yup... drive in and race
never used slicks :biggrin: to lazy to take them on an off
