He probably had to get a paper route after finding out how much this is going to cost....

 

A 12v engine would be a cheap upgrade for the truck and you probably could save some money on the NOS fills I have to get a few shots at the CR guys when I can.

 

Hey guys, been busier than a 2 bit hooker on saturday night. Been working on my dads old truck this week, gave it to my son. He is up here right now, he's going to drive it back tomorrow morning... did a tuneup on it last night,, finished the plugs wires, cap and rotor and battery,,now the darn truck wont start,, typical of my luck. Of course I bought all the parts last year so I cant return them. I am thinking it must be either a bad cap or rotor..

 

Geez Kevin if you and Mike ever got together you could probably break something by just looking at it Sorry couldn't pass that one up, hope you get it figured out.

 

LOL,, thanks Chris,, but you are probably right on the money there,,, LOL

 

Chris buddy, you know me way to well. I promise not to look at your truck to hard. Whats the fun on having perfect non broken stuff? I just put in -45 deg'C windshield fluid and a couple gas line anti-freeze. I want to see what will happen. Today, I could only pull around 45psi before I had to slam on the brakes on the way home today. I can't wait to see if the new brew will make more power

 

Kevin you probably already saw this, but in case you haven't

CR Standalone!!!

Rumored to be much easier on the wallet then the bosch versions.

 

yeah I have been watching that with much interest! even just 800 more RPM would just fix me right up

 

A CR crowd might have a chance against the non-electronic group, maybe time will tell. Of course you have to make a pass. My truck is still on the drawing board.

 

I seem to do ok against the non electronic guys,,, LOL If this controller works though, I will be able to have enough RPMs to use the Power I already have. That is pretty much my only hold back now

 

kev, how much timing you using on your truck? I've heard that some guys are using as much as 50 deg's at the higher rpm's. I was told that it helps to make more power.

 

Mine is supposed to be about 23 according to what smarty tells me

 

50 is pretty extreme, but I know that 38-42 is pretty common when either pulling or at the track, on the street most guys tone it down to 28-30.

 

I was talking to the guy that built the duramax camaro, and he told me that what he runs 50 deg's for timing on the engine. He uses aluminum rods and the crank is offset ground.

Dumb question, is the P7100 pump operates on the static timing or does it automatically increase as the rpm's increase?

 

P-Pump is static, and that is what I was referring to in my previous reply.
