Your car ran damn good for the 1st time out Bill! My car ran like shit and I ran a best of 11.6 @ 120 before i blew a headgasket " My own fault as I moved the timing up even though My timing light blew ". Time for some good old repair work and then a new tune with the methanol hooked up, anyone know of a good tuner that does SCT chip and HAS experience tuning methanol setup's in 5.0's?

Nice to meet ya Bill and once again beautiful car
I think i have your car on vid for a pass or 2.
Mark - Sorry to hear you popped a h/g
When did you figure that out?
I ran a coupe times more and then didn't see your car anymore
As for me the car got a little better but still having a bunch of traction issues and inconsistancy off the line
Best was 11.2 @ 130mph
It's just like my old Cobra(s).....needs some good tires to make use of all the hp

What Meth kit are you running? Also what are you using for meth. Washer fluid 50/50 OR pure meth and water 50/50.

Snow's kit and I have a 5 gallon tank of meth and distilled water that I will be mixing up when I run it. I hav'nt got it tuned with the meth yet so I am not using it yet.

Mark, Tuning for Meth on a 5.0 doesn't need to be done in the SCT chip. As long as your current A/F/timing curves are good, you can tune for Meth on your own.
Typical tune modifications: Add 8-10 degrees of timing Remove ~10% fuel
You can do with with a timing light & an adjustable fuel pressure regulator on your own.
I'd highly recomend a wideband O2 (Summit sells the Inovate unit for $300) & run some race gas as it's hard to say exactly how much timing you can get away with.
PM 2-stangs. He's been runing water/meth for quite a while & I believe he does his own tuning.
