sounds like Ben tried to flat shift on 2nd run. Much better, but he has alot of room for improvement on driving that car. today, he can watch in car cameras of drag guys....something we never had growing up. et Does matter. your drag racing. Its a cop out to just look at mph. Im not trying to put anything negative on this, but its just the truth. The Tune might be off.....but alot on driving too I had a very good friend who owned a plethora of awesome cars.....started off with his 85 mustang...to the end of his road---07 zo6 and a zr1. I was always given the keys to make a run, and always went 2-3 tenths faster. He was great at making money and building the car....but always was a touch off on driving it to 10/10. He was a great Man. He passed away at cecil county drag strip....in his vette...at the end of the track...got it shut down and the car was perfect......and stopped. Ill Never Forget Bob......

Do you know what the DA (density altitude) is on track days? DA makes a big difference on mph and et's. We always said about every 800 points on the DA we would pick up another 1 mph.
@Toys4Life
@Toys4Life Год назад
I used to just keep track of the temperature, now I'm starting to write down the DA on my time slips for future comparisons against my previous times. 100% agree It needs to be considered.
@WhiteZ50Won
@WhiteZ50Won Год назад
@@Toys4Life For sure. So example if you're going 11.6 @ 123 in 3000 DA then the car is fully capable of low 11s @ 126 in close to zero DA. Dont get too discouraged if its bad air conditions.

I say on your next run have Ben remove that diffuser on the tail. I bet $1 USD he picks up at least 1 mph just by removing it.

... why not permenitly install the AFR gauges? that information is fantastic bit of info to use to tune or check if your car is running bad so you can fix it before it gets worse
@Toys4Life
@Toys4Life Год назад
Very common and a useful gage to have 4 sure. I have an Aeroforce Scan Gauge that has a bright annunciator light that flashes anytime there is any knock. It also tells you LTFT's and any other parameter you would. So for my purposes I am good only temporarily installing the WB once or twice a year. Just my personal preference.

Nice job sirs! I know it's a preference thing, but I will never understand peoples fascination with tuning in Lambda lol.
@Toys4Life
@Toys4Life Год назад
Thank you, sir! This race day was like our last hurrah before winter... P.S. I never gave lambda much thought - until good wholesome Midwest ethanol entered the equation. It took a while but now it's very helpful.
@PNW_Car_Mods
@PNW_Car_Mods Год назад
@@Toys4Life Makes sense. We don't have easy access to ethanol out this way unless we buy very expensive race fuel in a pretty blue VP racing can. No pump E or anything around these parts.
@smeents2003
@smeents2003 Год назад
As @Toys4Life stated, tuning in lambda gets rid of the variability associated with the small amounts of ethanol that's added to most pump gas in the US (10-15%). That small amount of ethanol affects the stoich value of gas - as in, it is no longer 14.7:1. Stoich for E10 pump 93 is around 14.1:1. Lambda is lambda though - stoich in lambda for both E0 and E10 is 1.
@PNW_Car_Mods
@PNW_Car_Mods Год назад
@@smeents2003 You still have to account for ethanol in Lambda. Regardless of how you slice it and dice it it's just shifting the numbers. It is the new metric vs american lol.
@Toys4Life
@Toys4Life Год назад
@@PNW_Car_Mods I'm not sure I'm understanding what you're saying. Stoich for any percentage of ethanol fuel in lambda is 1. If I change from e0 to e85, stoich is still 1 in lambda. The actual air fuel ratio is drastically different and to call the stoich of E85 14.7 would be incorrect.

Since the Z got replacement "factory" heads, was the valve issue taken care of or does that still remain? Also, is the throttle body a factory unit or is it aftermarket? That may have something to do with the throttle jumping around along with it not giving full power. That Fiero is something special right there. Running it in the 11's too!!! Dang. Great video and explanation of the tune breakdown.

Love your channel. Curious on what cam/specs on the c6z06. With non-ported heads and most likely small cam, you should try changing to stock IM and throttle body. I have heard from some instances of the MSD losing low/mid torque and power. MSD really shines with the big cams with +20 degrees of overlap, and ported heads. Here is a good quick drag video of the same cam I run in my c6z06. If your interested in comparing. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SLjoAg4NYBE.html

I've seen dynos showing MSDs pick up low and mid range and not much up top. They compared it to a hi ram and the MSD made more mid range by a fair margin, but up top the hi ram was like 20hp more. Which if your in that Powerband more while banging gears I feel like a ported hi ram would be the way to go.
