ran a best of 15.79 @89.55 mph

still gotta fix the bogging at the line problem tough!!

i cant launch it full throttle it kinds of bogs and miss then gets to 2500 rpm and puts you back in the seat strange..

like how is it bogging down? like a fuel issue? have you had it dyno'd since you got everything fully tuned? like is it a A/F ratio issue?

i think it has a momentary lean condition when i smash the pedal becuase its fully mechanical carb so when the blades open fully maybe there isnt enough fuel yet.. i think i know whats the prob imma gonna adjust it later

its a carbed ;)
A/F is readed by reading plugs and plugs are good tan color

what i mean though is the mod valve can be adjusted to adjust the shift points, the balance on the banks can be adjusted along with the richness...

so then richen it up a slight bit and try it again...

fixed it and shimmed it it now has a 98 % les bog!!

for the ones who doesnt know that cam push that linkage and squirt fuel in the secundaries if its too late it will squirt fuel late and result is a momentary lean condition ( BOG )
