Cheers Trev!
So So close to the 9.5 you suggested a while back eh ? Just missed it by 0.1 of a second dammit !!!!
I'll just keep chipping away at it from now on. One small step at a time while logging the engines data.
Sadly I think that the weather will be the downfall of any attempt at the sub 9.5 now. But I have lots to do over winter and I'll just wait patiently for the good weather next year. I have 4-5 more track days this season but I doubt the track or the weather will be any good for us from now on
I have to admit that the best purchase I have made in the last 2 years is the Zeitronix data logger kit. This has paid for itself many times over in not having to go to the dyno for logging on power runs. The kit logs AFR on both banks of the engine. It logs RPM and boost as well. I can set alarm limits to either give me a light / buzzer or shut down whatever I want if things go wrong.
My 20 year old FRED is still doing its job well. My 13 year old pulsoids are still doing their job well. The 7 year old WoN pressure swtiches and bottle heater are working just fine as well. I treat the pulsoids to new pistons each year and thats it really
I am now saving up for a set of 350hp pulsoids for next season though as I dont want to have to fit 2 pairs of pulsoids again because I want neat plumbing from now on. And I want to be able to run a 250 shot for 2014 for the sub 9.5 attempt !
I have 3 pairs of pulsoids that I could PX for some new 350hp pulsoids. I'll give Ant a call to see if he can do me a deal on those later in the year.
I'm just over the Moon that my modified Rover 3.9 has come this far in just 4 months since we took it for first shakedowns. 9.6 seconds with a Rover V8 and WoN in a 2600 lb car.
I'm Happy
