Thanks guys. It took me a day and a half to get it running right. I had a carburetor problem and a distributor problem and I almost gave up and put the single 850 back on it. It looks like it's going to rain here today, so I probably won't be getting it out. It needs a real good cleaning.

It's been raining all day, so I couldn't get the car outside. I made this video inside the garage that's attached to my house, so it's too loud for the microphone on my phone, even with the mufflers on it. It still needs some tuning, so I had the idle too high. I did a quick clean up on the car and then shot this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9PcAiOEHpM

It took a while to get there, but I finally got what I wanted. I'll try to get video posted tomorrow.

This wasn't the good run. I completely messed up my burnout on this run and it spun the tires. It still went 11.08 at 125. This is the only run that I have outside video of. I'm still working on the in car video.
