Going racing + dyno tomorrow. Predictions?

How lean was it? If it was in the 13's or higher there's possibly 30-40+ hp. If it peaked at 4500, there's WAY more in it.

Carbs are easy to tune up, especially for full throttle. With the time it will take to build a megasquirt, you can have the carb figured out.

The sheet they gave me looks like it was right about 13:1 at wot. And peak looks to have come in at 5200rpm. I'm not sure why it got up that high on the dyno, but acted differently down the strip.

Honestly, i'm done with carbs. Its been the biggest headache with this car. I spend more time fiddling with the tune to try and get a reasonable streetable setup(something better than 10mpg) than i do racing it. I mean i like tinkering with stuff, but at some point you have to be able to drive the car more than 500 miles a year.
