    Controller options

    I made up a list of fuel/spark controller options. I separated them between Carb, Factory EFI and the 'self learning 'smart ' EFI systems. Please critique and if you can think of a combo or a product Ive overlooked - let me know. NOTE - Factory PCM can mean its remapped for purpose in this...

    Gen III / A body...high 10's / low 11's...street strip car. Anyone?

    Gen III / A body...high 10's / low 11's...street strip car. Anyone?

    Some of the wheel hp figs quoted on this thread are completely unrealistic - a stock 6.1 simply can not make 400 at the wheels..that would mean its losing 25 hp thru the drivetrain which is ridiculous.
