Re: Advice to get in mid 12s before for pinks all out!!!

Haven't had time to post the results but i have made two more trips to the track since last post. At the truck shootout i found the stock hei distributor to be bad and only ran a 13.2. Last weekend we went to a span on shootout in san antonio with 90+ degree weather and with the new msd pro billet, coil, and 6al we finally got 12.90! But this this time before we went to the track, we had to weld the spider gears cause the posi from the 1st gen camaro 10 bolt was slipping. I know its a no no but heck my g-pa did this for years on his 55 chevy bbc's. Anyways we launch good and some tire hop in the burnout box when the hoosiers started to scream. My shocks are bad and looking into those rancho shocks for the back. Also my mph "101" was about the same from the 13.2 compared to the 12.9... Yall think the stock mechanical fuel pump aint keeping up? Sometimes the clear filter is dry after a run... I have yet to go on a test and tune night but rule of thumb says ur mph will say if your running lean. I just ordered the holley blue pump and etc... I think it might help a little. 60' was 1.86 which im really suprised at. But topend i think could have used a little more pull. Thanks for looking and your comments will be highly appreciated.
