First thing you need to do is get rid of the .120 lines, they're way too big for the Simms pump and has been proven on the dyno. If you're running the cav style injectors I would suggest switching to the Bosch style injectors.

Just because the limit on turbo is 3" doesn't mean it will run better with one that big. You have a combination that is out of whack. Maybe an S300 2.6" would work better.

as previously stated the 120 lines are too big. costing you close to 40 hp. get a vogel cam and a precision charger 3 x 2.8 from scheid in Effingham il. ask for chris or Darrin. they will take care of you. when it comes to 3000 rpm class they are hard to beat.

I ran a stock 456, EXACT same fuel, 35 degrees, S300, and it turned road gear easily @11,000 lbs, did have to downshift DP at end of run. Had pump plunger issues with the .093 lines, all better when we went to .120's. I'd caution you against .093 lines unless you have Jim's blessing, am positive that's not your issue. Engine had stock cam, everything, just balanced. Welcome to PM me with any ?'s

Thanks for input, pump, lines, and injectors from wimers, timing about 30dregees, about foot of flame til starts to die, 101 exhuast housing,50 psi boost, will bigger valves and porting head help much? What does astock head flow vs a ported head ccs? Thanks again

Need more timing. Put the fire in the cylinder not the pipe

Above is correct, and are you absolutely certain that your timing marks are true? That sounds like incorrect timing. Assuming you don't have the pump output maxed out?

Here is a question for you... Why haven’t you called Forrester’s?? Your like 2 1/2 hours from them. With your setup. You run 7th gear high side of the dual power. Possibly down shift the DP closer to the end of that track. I would start to look at your Cam shaft, then is it degreed correctly. Pump timing? Travis Gordon can help you also, he has some badass fords running in Ky.
