The ability to put that ALL of that new found power to the ground becomes increasingly difficult.
If you have a new or Vintage muscle car like a 60 Camaro, Chevelle, Nova and the like

After a several months of not having a dragstrip avaiable to LA / Orange Counties. 1/8th mile street legal dragracing has returned to Southern California. Myself and countless others were in attendence for the first two events.
The opening event was packed. 3.xx second Jet cars and SoCals fastest street legal cars were in attendence.
At the second event the place was still packed. With the staging lanes 100% full all the way to the back wall of the parking lot.
Previously on the tunedbytad blog,
This awsome truck failed to dyno proper.
Multiple issue prevented a good tune from happening as delivered to the dyno.
The technical details are simple:
-rising rate fuel pressure regulator was adding way too much pressure
-Siemens 60lb injectors were WAY way too small and large duty cycle had them locked open at WOT
-102mm TB was being blamed for REP Reduced Engine Power and and poor idle quality
-lack of 2BAR operating system made for incorrect fuel enrichment curve.
*HPTuners 2Bar operating system upgrade provides Boost Refernced Power Enricment ability!
This is key to a smooth and safe NA to boosted transition.
Having a good customer that allowed me to do my job to rectify all the issues. I was able to reserect this truck into a real deal performer, with nice factory-esque street manners, and cold start.
Now that I have your attention lets talk about reliable steet power.
This is my good friend Nick's Impala SS
With my guidance Nick has built himself a fast, reliable, pump gas, daily drivable street car that performs at the track on a buget a hard working student can afford.
One could babble on endlessly with mod lists and part numbers
if your building a LT1 for your ride please contacte before you build your LT1
I consult with my clients for free on their builds in advance to help ensure sucsess
The keys to this build are:
-proven heads, cam, compression combonation
-attention to small details
-and super good flowing heads
91 octane pump gas, on a student buget, moderate milage 350ci factory shortblock, w/ heads cam and boltons
