Too much gear?

It's only trapping 6,000 even with that Godzilla cam in it. He may need more gear, not less. It relaly needs to be run on a dyno to know where it's running out of wind.

What carb is on it? Maybe those heads are the issue. Something isn't adding up with that that timeslip.

To your comment of more gear may be needed, I ran 11.14 at 118.45 with 4.88's in the back; the rest of the combination was the same..........I picked up mph by taking gear out of the car when I went with 4.56's.

A thought just came to mind.......did your throttle cable move in it's clamp? Happened to me, one time trial I went 11.64 at 116.6mph, 1.86 60 ft, next I went 11.88 at 107.2mph, 1.56 60 ft.........looking the car over found the throttle cable was loose in its clamp.
