Cool Brian!
Glad to hear you got to make some passes. What kind of 60' times did you have? And how did you end up plumbing the fuel side of your plate?

I ran it like yours, splitting it off before the main reg, but i have not had any luck with it this way. I am only spraying a 150 shot, if i go more for some reason or another i have nipped a cpl plugs, on the 150 tune i have been real safe, I am adding a dedicated fuel system as we speek to run both stages and i am going for 150 in the 1st stage and 200 in the second, I want a damn 9 second pass so bad i can taste it. By the way that 10.38 pas was in street trim with DOT QTP hoosiers, full exuast on pump gas. I am real happy but i dont want to hurt the engine.

OH Ya and it was scaled with me in it at 4175 with fuel and bottles.

Re: Ran the 66 Farmtruck this weekend

Brian,
Refresh my memory for me. Are you running a dead-headed main reg. or a bypassing reg.? On my truck, I'm running a BG 4-port dead-headed without any trouble. I did recently put a Magnafuel 500 pump on it, replacing a BG 400, but this didn't change anything concerning the plumbing and regs. for the carb and the plate. If this is how yours is set up, then I can't figure why it wouldn't work for ya.
That's cool, running those times on your street tires and with exhaust. 4175 lbs., eh? I'll be adding some more weight back to mine when I put the factory bench seat back in mine. I don't think mine will be quite 4200, but it'll be close.
Once you get this fuel pressure issue figured out, you'll be in the 9's, if the tires will hold it!

I am running a Aeromotive Eliminator pump and a A2000 4 port return style reg. So that is my hole Problem, I had planned on going blown with a F2 or something in the future so i did over kill for the motor figuring this would be fine for nitrous, I couldnt have been more wrong. So anyway i am setting up a remote fuel system for the bottle only. BG 280 and a 3 gallon cell on my core support to run the Nitrous only. I have done this before and worked great so i am going to have it ready here for next weekend to run up in canada. and for the season end race in Spokane on the 27th. Then off to boise the second weekend in october for their holloween classic. I think with a problem free 250 shot out of the second stage alone i ll go 9's with ease.
