Brad I didn't max the hole for the RJC pipe I left at least a solid 1/8" & I'm at 21-22 lbs with 2 turns into the rod. I need a track pass to really see where things are at because the short blips on the 401 don't cut it.

I turn is usually about 1 pound..at least with mine. If you turn it up a bit...toss some extra high gear fuel at it on the 1st pass. Better safe than sorry...and you can pull some on the 2nd run to bring it where you feel comfortable.

On a temp change like we've had in the last couple days...when I take it out again, I'll overfuel high gear on the 1st run...and then dial it in on the 2nd. I'm way too old to change headgaskets.

Exactly I have No Desire to pull the motor like I used to do every winter & especially not from a track day when I have the ability to add fuel etc. Thanks for the tip!  :cheers:

I'm gonna quit guessing on fueling next spring. I'm going 6.1. Set your AF where you want it...and go. It's easy...and I understand it...so it's the next logical step for me.

I went the sd2 route. Haven't installed it yet. Fortunately, there is a guy local to me that has bob Bailey helping him tune. I'm going to take it very slow after I install it. I spoke with Eric at length before pulling the trigger on it. I also had Eric make the low gear timing adjustable for my chip. His default SD2 chip doesn't have that option

Dave...go to Erics site and read up on it. Basically with Erics 5.7 chip you make a run on the defaults. Check your run on PL and then you guess how much fuel you add/subtract to get your desired fueling. With my car, 750 is about as far as I'm willing to push it. I've raced in all kinds of weather...so I have a good idea what to do with my fueling adjustments in regard to temp/humidity. With 6.1 you set your AF...there's no guessing. If a moron like me can understand it...then anyone can.

Eric has instructions on a PDF file on his site. You'll need a WB. I have an AFX...same as Steve has. Call Norbs...and talk to him about it if you don't have one.

Thanks, I have a Bosch wideband and a Fancy Pants A/F gauge from Mike at FT with added little lights that also logs stuff & has interchangeabl e faces & such but I don't care to get into all that as long as I have my Powerlogger & scanmaster. I'll definitely take a look over the winter at the 6.1 because I'm like you with all the Tech, I don't have the patience to learn all of it so Simple is Good!

Mike I wouldn't say scary but not having the aid of kids it takes me much longer to teach myself. I'm not into the tech or gaming stuff as much as say the mechanical aspect of it. When I was about 11 I took apart the snowmobile engine one day to see how it worked & needless to say I couldn't put it back together. My Dad wasn't impressed!  :rofl:

I have a ton of patience with these cars...but I have the IQ of a house plant. I can't wrap my head around SD or any aftermarket fuel management system. 5.7 and 6.1 are easy for me to understand. I like being dumb...as it keeps me away from all the cool guy stuff.

I suppose we are here to help guide you guys when called upon.  The self tuning stuff these days makes it a breeze.
