 |  first day at the track with the gn. 1. power master dont like stop and go. 2. the fuel pump makes weird noise when running low on gas my first run sucked due to my lap top not wanting to work so i relaly couldnt stay on it. i dumped and went a 13.72 the second i got a real bad 60' with a 2.006 that pass was 13.64 the last pass i did a 6psi launch and got a 1.89 60' and went threw the traps with a 13.53 at 98 mph.. once again i gotta thank ed for letting me use his drag radials.

You did good. Also that was with only 15lbs of boost. Track was not hooking up that good. My best 60' was 1.76 @ 11.56@118.01 with 20lbs of boost. Next time we will do better  ------------------ ED BAKER 87-T-TYPE, PT54,MSD50's,Crane Billet Roller,JE forged20over,P&P Heads,Manley valves,Hemco 65mm& Acu65TB,V2 FM, P.I.9.5 -7disc,Jimmys Trans, new times soon. 93 PARK AVE"SUPERCHARGED" 67RS/SS350 CAMARO mailto:ULYCYC@TurboBuicks.comULYCYC@TurboBuicks.com</A> http://www.modernmusclecar.net

Fuel pumps go bad very quickly when they suck air! Don't let it do that too often and not for any length of time..they get really hot when they do that. Great Pics...good first time out!

If you throw in some 100 octane up the boost to 20psi and give it some more fuel pressure. Then see what a GN is all about. ------------------ -Mike 1989 Turbo Trans-Am 11.25@121 Rebuilding Motor 1998 LS1 Trans-Am 6-Speed 13.10@106 *Factory Stock* |
