space or packaging issue?
Well I've been quite, but here I go. In re-but to no doing our home work were do you get off with that. People are throw theirr 2 cents in and those ideas were look at from the start. What we have here is a packaging problem, there is no room for a taller hat over the carb. We know the hat is not helping power, also a single plan intake would work better and ducting the air inlet to get air from outside the car would be awesome, but now we are back to packaging. The other thing is Ca's crap gas we may have 91 oct but it doesn't have the btu's that other areas have so yes our numbers are not going to be those high earth shaking numbers.
Bottom line is Mike's car does have more in it, given time to tune and add some way to cool the air inlet charge it will get there as this was the car's first tuning on the Super Flow dyno. And just a note with anymore timing the engine started to pre-ignite, so we are looking strongly at water injection.
Wish we had room for a intercooler.

Kevin,
Why is there no room for an intercooler in Mikes car? I have the same year car, a very similar setup and I run and intercooler, mounted down low in front of the radiator. Mike has serveral pics of my setup. Is there some reason an intercooler would not work for Mike?
