I know. Just worried something stupid will hold up tuning like a fuel pump going out or bad injector, etc. Seriously thinking about buying spares of the usual suspects that cut dyno time short so I am prepared! (FPR, fuel pump, coil pack, etc)

I would definitely bring spare OEM ignition components preferably new and also a few sets of spark plugs. It wouldn't hurt to bring some new vacuum lines and couplers too although you really shouldn't have a problem there not running high boost. The only other thing could be a fuel pump or fuel filter issue. I'm sure it will be relatively trouble free though.
The coilpack I have I bought from you:) Definitely will have plugs, couplers, clamps. I have a spare newish coil pack and wires. Really thinking about buying a walbro 416. I only need one pump for my current power goals and I don't like the idea of two pumps. I guess 1 of my 340's might be close enough though just in case one gave up.
It's a loooong drive and to end up having a few hundred dollar part hold us up, so trying to think ahead. Who wants to road trip with me?? :)
Ordered the gopro roll bar mount last night. Looking forward to finally using it.
Nice! Didn't realize you had a roll bar/cage...Custom or pre-bent setup?
Really? I've had it since 2005 when they told me not to come back to the track without it. S&W racecars mild steel cage. Definitely messed up the first cut on the DS door bar, so it is really low and won't do much in a wreck... But it gets me through tech and doesn't make getting into the car suck too badly.Quote:

I really want that same cage setup you have.

Don't get the cage until you absolutely have to. It makes driving on the street more dangerous (the bar is padded but still, there's a steel bar behind your head) and it was so much work...
And when the car gets back to 135 mph (it was up to around 130 mph based on 1/8th mile results at the end of the night at the TXG), they're going to see I need a 6th point (pass side door bar). I'm not sure I'll ever have the motivation necessary to add it.
Shock nightmare. Yesterday i broke down and cut the rear shocks off the car so that I could replace them with the new ones i bought from GZP. Still working on the inner ring of one of the the lower shock mounts. Gonna have to grind it off completely as it appears to be one with the car....still...grinding metal is always a good time. Takes me back to the days with my 68 Coronet....

Guess I haven't paid attention. Your car has always been pretty street oriented and you live in TX, so I assumed no cage and less regulation:) Love the 2012 picture. It's perfect!Quote:
