Hello
After much thought my best friend & I have decided to put sequential =
fire EFI on our drag car.=20
I found this---> http://yarchive.net/car/fuel_injection.html
Very nice information---I learned more from this than anything else I've =
read.

We've already built a 91 Corvette drag car with a L98 TPI (batch fire) & =
had a little success. The owner didn't want to dyno the engine so =
everything has been a hit-or-miss considering our limited knowledge of =
EFI. We're fully aware of the basic theory & operation but since I read =
the post about sequential fire I've begun to wonder if there's any =
advantage over batch or bank fire.=20

Here's what we're planning......
The car will weigh 2250-2350lbs & we're hoping for 1200hp @8500rpm from =
our 565 BBC.=20
The throttle bodies (4) each have 2 two inch holes located directly over =
the fabricated intake runners.
The injectors we're starting out with are 88lb & the ecm is a FAST =
sequential fire. (http://www.fuelairspark.com/)

I guess I'm asking any of your personal opinions of this since you seem =
to have full knowledge of EFI systems.
It seems everyone we've spoken with so far gives us vague =
information-----for example: What injector angle ? How much fuel =
pressure ? What is the optimum EGT ? Open or closed loop if the engine =
is only run at WOT ?
I've got some general ideas about the answers to these questions but no =
rock-solid advice.
We would gladly compensate the right person that would work closely with =
us to get maximum HP.
Weeks could be spent on the dyno without some sort of baseline =
information.
Also, any tips or links to other online information & articles would be =
greatly appreciated.
Anyone interested in helping please contact me asap.

Thanks in advance
Ray Roberts
