Oh yea
BRUTAL acceleration

I haven't done a WOT plug read yet, but it's really close with 70/80 jets, a 6.5 pv and 31/32 squirters (I already had those two sizes). No hesitation or bog whatsoever, just mind-bending power

Hey Alex, it's driveability is awesome after just a bit of tuning. It's plenty happy with a 6.5 pv, idles clean. As stated above, I had a 31 and 32 squirter in my parts drawer, so I gave them a try and it seems to like them. I set the pump lashes at .030 depressed, and I'll drop by the speed shop early next week for 35/37 squirters. Thanks for the baselines

Hey, V8 Thumper:
Were you able to get the larger squirters? If so, how did you like them?
Could you 'feel' any difference?
