Re: Big Block Fox Build
I hate that you had problems on your first night out. Have you got the car back to the shop to check out the shifter or engine running lean to not starting?

Re: Big Block Fox Build
Maybe the track was to cold that's why your 60 ft. times were so bad.A 7.40 1/8 mile time is good for at least 11.50's in the 1/4 mile.
Later Mark.

yeah it was really cold and I gotta learn how to do a burnout as soon as I touched the gas it would break loose a tire shake real bad I would let off then go and I was shifting at 5,000

Re: Big Block Fox Build
You need these on your rear end setup. They will help get rid of your wheel hop.

Re: Big Block Fox Build
It has probably been mentioned already but isn't that carb TINY for this application? I though you had o almost double your fuel supply when switching to E85? Heck, most small block people runnign E85 around here are running a 950-1050 carb.
