Fuel Related Problem?
I've noticed that under load my car will not rev past 5600 rpm...and I'm not sure what's going on. In neutral, I can rev up over 6000 very easily, so I think it might be a fuel supply problem.
Here are my engine specs:
355, 9.5:1 CR, 993 heads with 2.02, 1.6 valves, XE268H cam, 1.5 rockers, Weiand Action Plus intake, Q-Jet tuned by Lars, stock points dist (but also tuned by lars), stock fuel pump with 3/8" line. Stock exhaust manifolds with 2" exhaust into stock style mufflers.
If anybody has an idea as to why my car just stops (as in it really stops, I almost slam into the steering wheel, it won't turn any more rpm
), I'd be interested in hearing it.
tia,

The car is running slightly rich, as I told lars that I would soon be upgrading to headers and 2.5" exhaust with better mufflers. I'm running R42T gapped at .035.
I'll pull a couple during lunch and get back with what they look like.
