btw how many feet of harness did you order with your cutout?
bumping up the shift points will help, since you run that small slick, i would hold 2nd longer that way you don't go into 3rd unitl the last possible moment... IMO since you mainly do 1/8th mile this would help...

my cutout is just the standard length that DMH (sp)..

justin has my 2nd shifting sooner than my 1st. but with my track setup, it shifts at 6k instead of 6300 where he set the tow haul mode.

Ideally that is correct, cause more that is where the power starts dropping off, but to maximize 1/8th times i like to carry that shift out longer, depending on tire size and other stuff, it eliminates the 2-3 shift and the 3rd bog, unless your scott with the insane shift extensions....

Went 13.5@102 with a rich 75 jet 42/24.
13.2@102 with a really rich 100 shot, I mean black smoke rich lol.
Race weight was 3379 with me in it and a half tank of fuel.

With tuning a converter and cal tracs it would have been a 12 second truck. It ran within one tenth every pass.

I have went 10.6@126 in the 96 with 235-60r15's and cal tracs. The trucks are easy to get down the track. That one was lighter at 3250 with me in it.

So yes I believe Zippy is right. I will have a hard time proving that now though, little past the 4.3l stage.

What size was your 100? I was gonna run a 45 and 30. My 75 was gonna be 42/27, but now that sounds rich compared to yours.

yes sir thats my next project, the cut out. my exhaust is too quiet. I also have plans for the headlight trick too. my volant is a closed box and has open bottom and end, but no open front. so I want to cut out a square to draw in the cold air. should work nice.

52/33 and that was rich too, but I had a 255 walbro in the tank so my pressure was just north of 60psi. This was with a NX kit. NX calls for a 41/22 for 75 and a 52/31 for 100.
