Since I'm not well versed in computer tuning and I know the awesome power produced by the (especially 500cfm) Holley carbs, tuning one of them would be easier than figuring out the multitude of adjustments needed to make my car run quick enough to run Pro!

What I might otherwise do if/when the funds allow, is take my car to a shop I know of here in southeast Phoenix that specializes in tuning computer controlled cars. I'm sure it'll cost a pretty penny, but they'll wake up my computers set-up to where I may not need to do the above, and it'll be Stock legal with or without Stock Eliminator.....once I get the funds look out!!!!

So nice try, but I'm not kidding....
Gary, I'm not sure what baseline V8 tune your talking about. With factory computers, as your car came with, the "baseline tune" is in the computer. That is what we begin with when using the factory computer. I don't remember, does that engine have a distributor?
