Not much. Just cruising craigslist for a parts car for your Regal parts and 63 or 64 Fairlane parts for another potential customer.

Do you have any idea what it weighs now? My car with all steel body panels, no hood on, 8.50 moly cage, all TRZ and Strange stuff, all aluminum SBC/TH350, 9-inch, full interior, full 16 gallon cell, weighed in at 2833 pounds. I could easily get it under 2700 just with CF doors and bumpers!! Maybe even close to 2600 without filling up the fuel cell and doing the full CF treatment.

I've never used C16, just C12 and Q16. Anything I can help out with?

Its full running weight so probably around 3400??
I'm thinking of running it in the Focus at the track to make it safer and bump the spark up above 5k rpm. I'm trying to understand the spec gravity of C16 and how that will effect my AFR over the pump 93 it's tuned for now and if it will richen the mixture on the same fuel maps, how much that would slow me down.

How extreme do you plan to make it? Are you planning to keep the Buick 455 and TH400 in it?

I'll bet a quick call to your local VP rep would probably be able to give you all the information you need. I would imagine that you should be able to simply adjust fuel pressure and timing to compensate for any differences, right? Do you have any sort of real time AFR reading ability for tuning?

Yeh its going to stay 455 based and th400. I would like to be able to get it in around 10s...mid high 12s now. The motor is basically stock so I have a lot of room to build.

Much easier to post pictures here with the new changes
Trash Or Be TrashedIt's much easier to post pic's with this new format. No more hosting on a 3rd party site that will go out of business. Much better! Here's a random photo from my camera's memory card.- 43

Tell me how this is legal
Trash Or Be TrashedA local convenience store in rural Mississippi cooks and sells seafood (shrimp, crab legs, etc.) inside the store. There is a sign posted at the order counter that states: EBT customers must purchase food before we cook it.- 5

OK I'm bias....
Trash Or Be Trashedbut why does this software look like something a 3rd grader designed and never completed? This layout is shit plain and simple. It is very hard to see the separations from post to post, it is hard to navigate, there is a lot of wasted space on the screen, scrolling is a PITA, the main page only...- 106
