    Go to Spuds website www.fuelinjectionenterprises.com and use his calculator to work on your fuel pressures and boost levels. This should get you in the ball park. I wouldn't even mess with the high speed until you get things sorted out. Leave it turned around

    More pump would let you run more line pressure and atomize your fuel better, something is off.

    We run a 110 with an 8-71@28% on a 572" motor, 14-16psi boost and its been 7.99 in a 3250 lb car.
    I think the main is a .092 right now with (8) .039 hats and (8) .026-.028 ports, lots of pressure.

    I was just wondering why you have a 38 jet in 1 port and the rest quite a bit larger?

    fuel system

    "The only advise you can't afford is free advise"...

    Most of the good running cars out there have had their fuel system on a flow bench. Call somebody reputable that will actually flow your system and you'll be real happy with your results.

    I know that's probably not what you want to hear (more $$) but I will say that's the most correct answer.

    And probably the least expensive in the long run.

    thank you for the replies as far as having a .038 in #8 that is what it took to finally start burning the cadmium off the plug in that cyl. I spoke with Spud Miller over the phone and it looks like My setup will be going to visit him = most correct answer, thanks Will.
