Little update of work performed. Changed from a 6.14 gear to a 5.57. Hoping to use motor torque to accelerate car. Front end alignment. Front end had severe toe in. Took front GM brake calipers off and freed up movement in hopes to keep pads away from rotor. They had allot of drag before, now they barely touch rotor when spun. Moved some weight to the back as I moved some to the middle of car and 60ft slowed. Installed cool fuel can. Installed fuel pressure gauge and found out I had been running 7lb of fuel and was wondering why car had a blubber to it. Had a cheap gauge mounted right at regulator and was reading wrong. Racing team race this Sunday and see if anything helped.
