Awesome numbers! Welcome to the 400/500 club. A/F seems a bit lean in my opinion though. Might want to look into a reburn. What are your mods>??? -Mat-

400/500 +
AWESOME
CONGRATS Goose

A/F looks fine after 5000 RPM,
but never saw it stay soooooo lean for so long,
4000-5000 RPM looks outright Dangerous

I would def get that checked

Great Numbers Bro, should net you some amazing ET's

Be carefull with that file. Seems much too lean to me....
Our trucks like it best and are safest around 11 to 12s a/f...

If that was a tailpipe sniffer, do the A/F's typically run a point leaner anyway?

Great #'s man. it's amazing how alive these trucks get with little mods. I have basic bolt on's like you do. I am hoping for 400/500 also. Again, congrats on the #'s man. How is the vette?

Hey, that was done at Stegemeier's! Thats right down the street about 1/4 mile from my work at Valvoline. Thats where im gonna go after I get my Powerdyne supercharger and new heads on. Those are some pretty impressive numbers!

We should go to the test and tune night often next year. Im a part of the FTW Missouir chapter. You should join up, its great fun, and their is another L in our group you would have fun racing!

Here was a pull from my truck last Friday. It was at 85 degrees.
This is the race side of my chip. 100 octane only. I only had 93 in the truck with some booster that brought it up to around 98 so it was a risky pull. I needed to get the timing off it or I would not have taken the shot without the 100 fuel.

Anyway, my a/f seems to be just at 12-12.1 starting at about 4450 RPM's.

It hasn't pinged or detonated even once in 7 months. Now that cool weather is sneaking in, I am a bit more cautious with this side of my chip.
