Laying over

SUPER STREET ROB · 07-31-2011, 08:07 PM

Put a new 434 small block 18 degree heads on alcohol in the car last week. Went to MIR today to test it before I go to Atco next weekend. The problem im having is Its laying over in high gear. Its a turbo 350 3 speed trans. shift 1st and 2nd gear at 7000rpm's and when I put it in 3rd gear it goes to 6500 rpm's and stays there for the last 300 feet. I changed jets and return pills at the track and it made no difference. I checked everything in the fuel system. I called George Rupert and did everything he told me to do. So im kinda stuck here and wanted some ideas on what to do. The car is a 1980 pontiac Grand Prix that weighs 2755 pounds with a 430 gear.In 3000 feet of air today it went a 9.14 at only 143mph????????? with a 1.24 60'. in the 1/8 it went 5.77 at 118mph. Any help would be greatly appreciated........... Thanks in advance....Rob Derr
