Quad4 Update (off topic)
I just wanted to relay some information from this weekend.
Thanks to everyone during my Spark Plugs questions. I didn't get to
borrow a Diacom so I still don't have a clue if I am running lean or
rich, but from the old plugs and the feedback I got, it looks like I am
running lean.
Someday I've got to get an old laptop and monitor all this wonderful
data the GMECM can give me!
---------------------------------------------------
This is my personal best:

The car weighed 2800 lbs with me in it! These cars are HEAVY! Barry's
Z24 weighed less than my car with only the trunk items removed... I was
a little disappointed in that. ;)
The best run was done with the headlight out, intake hose turned up near
the front of the battery, no filter, iced intake, no A/C and alternator
belt, trunk items removed, seats removed and less than a 1/4 tank of
gas. If you listen to the video you can hear me pedaling the gas trying
to get the tires to hook up in 1st! I also learned on the last run of
the night that a Centerforce DF clutch can NOT hold up to a 2nd gear
burn out! I had smoke coming out the front of the car and out of my
steering column... Man did that thing stink! If you want a high
performance clutch for a FWD GM, look into Clutch Masters. Centerforce
Sucks! (wish people had told me this BEFORE I ordered mine...) :(
Here are the #'s.....
R/T 0.691
60' 2.130
330' 6.149
1/8 9.494
1/8 MPH 73.81
1000' 12.352
1/4 14.807
1/4 MPH 91.79
This was the best run of Barry's that we got on tape... He did run a
15.8 later in the night.

That is VERY good for that Z24!
Here are the rest of the videos.
