I was sifting through all my timeslips and noticed that my 1.8 miles times are high. Here are slips:
60'...........1.825
1/8...........8.601
mph.........79.45
1/4...........13.447
mph..........102.99
60'...........1.784
1/8...........8.589
mph.........79.42
1/4...........13.516
mph..........100.99
60'...........1.815
1/8...........8.580
mph.........79.39
1/4...........13.441
mph..........102.19
60'...........1.795
1/8...........8.853
mph.........76.34
1/4...........13.873
mph..........99.97
Shouldn't my 1/8 miles be around 8.0? If so, I think I figured out my problem. These runs were all made with a bad 2nd gear syncro. I think what may have happened is that I took too long getting it into 2nd resulting in the poor 1/8 and poor 1/8mph. If I could get the 1/8 mile down to an 8.0 then I would be running the kind of 1/4's that would make me happy.
Anyways, what are your 1/8s? Do you have any opinions on this?
BTW, all these were made with the stock fuel system at 14.5 psi.
Thanks
