timing 8-9*

autolite 24 gapped around .32-.35

might need a blowdown tube

make sure cars in good running order and at least have a bigger fuel pump than the stock one, wet or dry kit?

have fun

Ok.....so wat about da et'z...

Retard timing 1° for every 50hp shot.. 10° is base timing.. so run 7° timing. Like stated above, run 91 + octane booster to be safe. Make sure you have an upgraded fuel pump and upgraded injectors.. last thing u want is to run the car lean.

colder plugs, extra pump and i go 2 degrees for every 50hp especially on an NX kit.

I went 114mph on a 215shot bone stock motor from throttle body to oil pan with long tubes.

No ... not necessarlly . That would depend on your setup. Like if you have your n20 system programed to engage at a certain rpm or out the hole

no problem.. i wouldn't spray it under 3k my boy ran a 12.9 with a 75 shot and gears.. with tires you should hit a high 12..
