Took demon out. OMG this is the best it has ever ran!! I can cruise at any rpm. I can floor it to WOT from any speed. Very responsive. Starts great. I am afraid to even look at it now!
What I did:
Both airbleeds (one 1/16" hose barb in each carb like idle eze system) open to filtered air (i installed another barb bottom of each air cleaner)
3.91s changed to 3.23
Removed vacuum advance all together ...installed the lock plate MSD supplies if removing (or not using) the vacuum advance.
18⁰ initial and 36⁰ all in at 2200.

Our Mopar club went out to the drag strip and painted the new plywood on the backstop. When they invite the jet cars, they burn down the backstop. Good for the show, bad for the drag strip. We hang our advertising signs and banners there from the companies that sponsor our event and donate to our club.

Fire retardant paint. Not cheap. But, I used this to bring a wood framed wall up to fire code in last place I worked. https://flameoffcoatings.com/intume...MIrqahndj9_gIVsBGzAB3jjAMSEAQYASABEgIULPD_BwE

Take this
and put it in fronta this barrier on a Satuday Nitro Night
with dozens of unsuspecting paid spectators behind the barrier on their way to the pit side bleachers. Driver hit the LOUD pedal and it got a lot louder than they were expectin' .

Hoping everybody is ok !
Nice.
Going to just enjoy it like that for a while?
Before getting antsy for more tuning, take it to a drag strip or dyno. IMOyou will have a good baseline for both street driving and give you some information about for maximum performance.
While a dyno cost more than a drag strip, its not more if you added the cost of a datalogger and all the time needed for learning, etc.
To make the chassis dyno worth it,
a) it has to have an WBO2 AFR sniffer. Whether its in the tailpipe or a bung isn't too important.
b) they have to provide you the log files and a way to read them.
Otherwise dragstrip is cheaper and often more fun.
Here's are some results from my previous 340.
Because of the way Dynojets are built, using speed instead of engine rpm reflects more directly the data collected and how it calculates power.
Anyway the reason for posting the screenshot is the AFR.
The first run was with the 76/80 main jets. The vacuum secondary opening is so rich it causes a dramatic drop in AFR and a blip in the HP curve.
This was not quite as obvious in real time because the scale wasn't expanded the way it is in the screen shot above.
The AFR on the other two runs is relatively flat. That suggests the jetting and main air bleeds have good relationship.
Smoke issues?
Alberta is dealing with lots of fires, and smoke is drifting east and then south. And its pretty thick. Its been so hazy the last couple days from smoke.
Morning folks.
Downhill side of the week.
41° this morning. There was a frost warning up for the county overnight. Things seem to be OK here on the ridge.

Morning Frank. Early for you
Good morning
On my second cup of coffee
Yup. Been 3:30/4:00 all week.
Fixing to get a ride in. Little hydration therapy beforehand. Coffee after
That'll make the day longer.
Its going to be a cool day,coming from the north.pushing the smoke south.
Both. Take the ridge off then hone just honing will give the bore a taper.
Cool this morning but going to be sunny and high 60”s
Morning Honners!
same here low 30's right now.
Yup, says 34 here…..
