Break-in is complete. My First and only run of the day yeilded:
1.80 --- 60 ft
7.92 --- 1/8 ET
86.03 --- 1/8 MPH
12.39 --- 1/4 ET
112.51 --- 1/4 MPH
The reason why I ran once and so poorly was:
1. I just re-caliberated my governor and at WOT the governor did not allow the tranny to shift into the next gear manually or with the shfiter in the drive position without me letting off the gas, meaning I had to back peddle the car at least 4 times during that pass. I already knew I had to re-caliberate the governor. I just got tired of working on the car and took a chance. I'll be going back to the stock governor because it worked fine when I manually shifted before the re-cal.
2. I took off my A/C and smog-pump and installed an A/C delete pulley in its place years ago, but I did not install a smog-pump delete pulley because I did not need it with my old set-up. But with my new found power it has jumped off twice prior to today. So that's why my 60 ft was a lttle low for the set-up. I eased into it so that I would not throw the belt off again, but it did not work!
So instead of risking anymore harm to the car I just called it a day, but I really wanted to run. Its all good I'll get that full WOT pass soon. Can you say 11's. The car feels very strong and it pulls really hard throughout the entire RPM band in all gears, just need to fix the governor and belt throwing issue.
