Anything I'm missing? Empty Anything I'm missing?

Post  6jeff6 March 21st 2016, 4:31 pm

521 roush/Yates all stock from them with nos wet kit with 10lb bottle.
Put in jets 059 for both sides. Have timing set to retard 4 degrees when button depressed. Fuel is off of same pump that feeds 1050 dominator carb. I'm running 32 degrees of timing but may bump it to 34. Wide open switch is wired together as I'm pretty sure I can lift my finger off the button.
Anything else I'm missing or anything wrong with this?

Also should I set start up retard of timing to anything or 0? It started somewhat hard last year when waiting in line but I did run 38 degrees of timing and it ran well but people said that was too much so I backed off to 32.

Any help or advice I'm open.

Thanks

I would put a timing light on it and verify the electronics are actually retarding the timing like they should. You can block the fuel or pull the ground off the solenoid and leave the bottle closed or un-hooked. Sounds good so for except for the pussy pills.

PS: Make sure the WOT switch will kill the power to the solenoids when you lift, I usually wired them in series with the button but did away with them and went straight button for more control.

Bring you some spare U-Joints to the track, might need then if the C4 does not take a dump first.

.030 could be a good starting place. High HP (600 plus) guys are usually in the area of .025-.028

Bigger the jet the smaller the gap. I like as big as a gap that I can run w/o miss-firing a cylinder. More gap = more fire = more power. But remeber that cylinder pressure is high and it'll want to blow out the flame if it's too big....

Put an NGK plug in it until you get the jetting figured out. The strap is very forgiving and much cheaper than pistons. Once the tuneup is right, put the equivalent Autolite plug in it as it will make more power. Although many will argue that point

NGK FR5 (7373 I think) which is the same as an Autolite 3924. That gap is biggggggg for N20

Was a little advantage we did bogging back in the day. And I was the grunt that had to turn timing back so it would start then advance so she'd rip. I really can't believe I can hear today lol.

Thanks I'll gap the motor craft at .030 then try to get a set of those.

You from polk cty wi? I'm a logger and I'll be starting a sale over in balsam lake (polk).

Only paperwork I have is a NOS wet nitrous kit. Fuel comes in the back of the carb and nos to the front. It is a 1050 dom carb. I can't find any numbers on anything .

He likely has a Cheater or big shot plate. The .59 NOS jet should put him in the 165HP or a tad less range with the BigShot and 140 with the Cheater plate. I have run those small jets in my big block with stock plug gap and ignition and cast pistons with no problems. Jeff Pull the plate, if you have 64 hole spray bars it is the BigShot plate, the Cheater plate has about half that many. Make sure the JB Weld that holds the inner bushings in ( used on the old style plates, if that is what you have) is in good shape. I lost an engine when the NOS side bushing slid down the tubes and blew the air cleaner off and bent a valve durning the extreme backfire. Let me know if you want me to dig through my parts stash for some jets.

I don't have much experience with that small of jetting in a plate but it sounds like these guys can help you out a bunch. One of the nitrous motors we're taking to Tulsa this weekend just stepped down from 64's in the fogger to a 125 single pill in one of our plates to run the Limited 275 class.
