Went out to the track last night to get some data. It was hot. 98 degrees, 13% humidity. It was a fun night but so so frustrating as I was close to touching a 10 but couldn’t make it happen. Car is pulling timing for some reason right out of the hole and I believe again up top as I saw my iat2’s go to 160. With my cooling mods they recovered super fast, however last night has swayed me to put a basic water/meth kit on the car. Going to install that and try and go 1 more time before I swap to the ported blower.

Would you consider putting your build into your signature line, please.. ;)

Sometimes, when a poster is having issues, viewing their build can help.
Particularly their camshaft valve events, TB size, cylinder heads, and pulley sizes.. ;)

Cheers

Stock cam?
With that combo, your not doing bad..:)

The only reason your seeing the boost you are, is because boost itself, is simply a resistance to air flow.

If we remove the air restrictions within the induction system,
boost goes down, but VE% goes up. . . So now one would
desire to overdrive the blower more.

Once your VE% can deliver more than 100% cylinder fill, then we
move on to describing cylinder fill, by stating it as %VE.

100% cylinder fill for a 376 cid engine, yields above 755 fwHP, to 785 fwHP. A safe cylinder fill would be about 87%, or approximately 660 hp.

A better cam, and an increase in pulley ratio, will get you much more.
Then you can move on to a better cylinder head if you wish.

You might want to add what fuel your using to your signature line also.
I know, picky, picky, picky. . lol

And if you do everything I tell you to do, you’ll have to go to the bank and take out a very large loan… L O L

But you seem to be well on your way to spending large volumes of dollars, without my help..😃

Yeah I’m well on the way lol. Already talking to my buddy to pick up his Gforce rear end, axles and 15in conversion.
I seem to only pick expensive hobbies. Cars, competitive shooting, etc.
