Yeah, but you have a bigger cam! Try slightly faster to get more into the sweet spot with the cam.
You can go to about 16:1 AFR after that not much point. Just check the logs to make sure the table sits in the area where you are cruising. Your MAP kPA will no doubt be different to stock.
You can also drop the timer and VSS so it works more often.

Best I did was a 12.9 with street tires, 2.1 60' so Id need some MT's to get closer to your time :)

Id love to keep it but I already have 2 v8's with a 3rd on the way. Plus we live in an estate with a single allocated park! 3 cars is bad enough, with 2 taking up visitor spaces, but 4 would cause trouble. Im going to be using it up till the minute it goes. So will do a few events hopefully before its gone. Couldn't refuse an HSV Maloo for work!

Uploaded a heap more photo's to PH http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/ ... 99/2149356

Ah fair enough...but a man can never have enough V8's if given the chance hahah.

I'm hitting about 15.5 ish with timing around the 35 deg mark, doesn't knock and drives fine. MAP is low is 40-50 same as stock would have been. Just wanted to squeeze the last bit out of it as a pod run is noticeably more expensive than York :S

Lean it out a bit more then. Holden go to 16.5:1 IIRC in the OEM tune.
See what that does. Power will drop, but thats the idea then you open the throttle more so less pumping losses.

Hey Maudy that will be me....... :thumbup:
I've not been on here for so long(browser issue) I couldn't remember what my board name was either!!

ringrams Camaro has a new home parked next to my 1997 F1 Camaro.

Runs great, scares the neighbours and out accelerates "chav cars" even while experiencing 30 degrees of yaw....
