BTW The truck is a co project between my father and myself. We both have money invested in it. We use it to bond. So even though his name is on the ownership. It is actaully both of ours.

Hey Nick don't tell me about your life stories after you come crashing on me ok!

I would never say anything about that father/son project infact thats great to have a father that loves to do that kinda thing, you father is a very great man! But don't try a dig up a vehicle after you call me out on a race and having nothing to show up in!
Like I said im not ready to race Nick, not that im scared its I feel im not finished with my tune...My Tune is still a little sloppy on my AFR mixture....guess I just cant throw in a JET and piss on the carb and call it a day!

lol. guess not. Let me know when you are ready. I don't have to dig up a vehicle, I have one. Thats what I'm saying. If your taking this as a call out, then so be it. I guess I will join your list.

How sloppy is it? Do you need help to get it running right? let me know. I can come up, we can have a BBQ and fix it.

btw: if fuel injection is so superior, how come your having so much trouble?

Ill say it again, you cant just jet it like a carb. There is many tables and functions to deal with....

But when its at were I want it, I wont choke when I hit the throttle and stuff up like a holley in fuel!

Food for thought:

There has been a lot of time put into tuning the S10's Holley with a wideband. I know, I've been a part of it.

It has a FLAT A/F from the moment you stuff it to rev limiter.

Like you are trying to setup your EFI; the same can be done with a carb.

I think the issue is that you don't know how to tune a Holley. I'm not stating that as a dig, rather it seems to be very obvious in your apparent bias.

A carb can be setup to behave in a very similar manner to EFI. No, it won't have the ACCURACY of a table, but then the table is only as good as the person filling it out. The same can be said for the setup of a carb.

Don't knock it until you've tried it our way man. I think you would be VERY surprised to see what a Holley can do.
