    Then read up on FZ and FZR racing engines plus how much advance the 60's Honda GP bikes needed compared to a 70's Cosworth for the other end of the spectrum.

    Why can't KB be like this more often?

    Ever read the stories about the shift from the 392 to the 426 Hemi's? No one could make power out of the things, no one wanted to shift from racing the 392's. One day Big Daddy Garlits, pissed off that Chrysler were forcing him to run a 426 that couldn't keep up with the 392's - he decided to blow the thing up buy giving it almost 60 degrees of ignition timing. Then he dropped a half second off his best ET. He had a lead for most of that summer until one of his opponents watched him wring the neck of his distributor.

    The mighty 426 Hemi - supposedly great, but many, many flaws for the real word. Give me a worked 440 any day of the week, and twice on Sundays. Ford's cammer 427 was even worse. The timing chain was long enough to need two different post codes.
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    Propylene Oxide is what they use to speed up the slow combustion of Nitro methane it could well have its use with poor head designs san the nitro.

    To be fair the mods do seem to do a decent job of keeping the trolls out of the technical threads now, well better than they were over the last couple of years.

    It uses a Link G4. It's only tuned on E85 but I have a map for 98 which I roadtuned myself with the wideband sensor so it is no good for boosting. I need to plug in the laptop to change it over.

    Good choice.

    I hear they're really great, and the best and awesome.

    I may be biased
    Can I scream?

    I've been using self learning EFI on some muscle cars, had some very good results with the Holley EFI self learning, Edelbrock set up, not so much. Neither seems to support E85 as a realistic option. Japanese cars with turbo's are light years ahead of old American cars even with more modern TBI set ups - TBI is God's way of telling you to buy an LS.
