Nice work. Looks much better.

Make sure to check with Black Bear Performance. I bought mine through them.

I don't know what size tire you're running, but Mickey Thompsons new Pro drag radial is hard to beat. Currently it only comes in 275/60/15 but there are rumors of a bigger size coming. I think they work ok.

Yes sir. Full interior, tagged, inspected, and driven to get groceries on a frequent basis. I'm running a TH350 with 3.50 gears and I'm running a 275/60/15 drag radial. So, it actually goes down the highway nicely too.

Did nothing specifically with the car, but did make arrangements for someone to cover me at the clinic so I can race on Sept 27. Going to a heads up street car race in Ardmore. I haven't ran it since May 18th. Getting a little antsy.

Ordered one of these for it so I don't end up leaving my back bumper on the starting line.

I would stick new wires on all 8 and the coil. I may certainly be wrong, but I just don't see the cam causing that erratic pattern. Certainly a steep power drop, but unless it's floating the valves I don't see it causing that. How big of carb are you running? Have you joined speedtalk yet? I have yet to find a more knowledgable site when it comes to horsepower.

I would dyno it again before you go buying cams. I still don't think cam is your issue. Again, only possibility I see there is if you running a hydraulic cam.

That really does look great! Really dresses up the engine bay in a very "clean" way.

Looks great! I just took my cover off.

That is a performance gear reduction starter. It's not very small, but I bet it's smaller than the oreillys starter. I don't see a "stock" starter living. If you like changing them then it will probably work.

I can't imagine trying to get a full size starter on and off that thing. Damn! We can't get a full size starter in and out on our camaro or my nova. If we did it would never live. I just stuck a new MSD starter on mine in may.

Do you have a mini starter on it?

Installed O2 sensor bungs on the camaros exhaust and checked timing on the nova.

Also, what other forums have you been on? I recommend speedtalk.net Some of the premier engine builders in the country frequent there.

I certainly didn't mean to imply that you were a moron. It's just that this is the internet and you never know who's on the other side of the screen. I don't know your engine specs. I assume this is a solid and not hydraulic valve train? Under that assumption, my first thought would be some where in the ignition system too. I have certainly seen plugs do this. I have also seen a wonky distributor do it. How old is that digital 6 plus box? I just had to replace mine because it under load around the same rpm would make the car feel like I was hitting the rev limiter. I even tried adjusting the rev limiter to 9500 and it would still do it right around 5500 rpm. Long before my shift light.

Were you thinking 700-800 wheel hp or crank hp?

My new to me track cart.

Most likely because the 700R4 won't hold up to the power that a GV unit will. Even a built 700r4 or 4L60 just doesn't like a lot of power. Especially if you like to use the power. I know everyone has a story about their brothers uncles friend had a 8 sec car with a 700R4, but the design just doesn't handle power well.

Changed the motor? More info

Nothing besides talked about what I need to do to it. It's been sitting for about a month.

I don't have a Gen V engine, but I do run a catch can. I ordered mine from http://catchcans.com Nice quality can for the price.

Thanks

Got the new front clip and drag radials installed. Took it out last weekend.

It will run a little rich, but it will run fine. A tuner, like black bear performance, can tune out the rear cats and prevent it throwing codes.
