What do I know, my former Super Stock GT Firebird is quicker and faster than 99% that post here, has run a best of 8.72 @ 154 and 1.17 60 foot with a fuel system plumbed by Mike Pustelny using all Product Engineering components and NO bypass kit and my dragster has run a best of 7.18 @ 186 MPH without a bypass kit plumbed into it's regulator. Just imagine how much quicker/faster it would run with it. 
I try things too, have for over 25 years, what I don't do is ask opinions on internet forums of what I have decided to do with my car, my $ and my time.
FYI, for those that missed it a previous post here, I have also run a Q-Jet for many years back in the 90s, atop my 600+HP at the time, 468 BBC, running as quick as high 10's with it in my 3900 lb. Chevelle. No PE pump, regulator or bypass. Ran a Malllory Comp 140 pump, filter and dead headed regulator and no issues what so ever. |
A 468 that only made 600 horse, maybe you DID need that bypass kit on that turd.Made more power than that with nearly half the cubes, and went 8.80's in an AX chassis car....big deal. You gave your response to the OP and he acknowledged it and actually thanked you. Beginning to see why the racers I've met that say they know you call you "Big head Ed" go figure. I'm amazed that you think your car having a faster E.T. means a damn thing to anyone but you, hows it fair to say a twin turbo small block on a 10 inch tire,,,, I can tell you. Not Good. Come join the ranks of lbs. per horse power, or lbs. per cubic inch and then tell us how fast your stuff is!
