Sounds like you've got it under control. If you have big tires, good compound, and like to come out hard, you might be starting to approach the limits of your ZF. 2nd gear takes a lot punishment but can give up the ghost in dramatic fashion. Occassional input shaft failure as welll on big power cars. The zf is a nice piece but if you break it, it'll get into your pocket a bit. Pantera's don't really hook all that well though, at least by drag car standards. That's why they never run better times than similar power/weight spec'd cars. Like anything else, how you drive it will dictate how well it stays together.quote:I have the ability to monitor knock as well, but haven't figured out quite where I want to put the knock sensors.
Have you had success with knock sensors on high power engines? I'd like to know how reliable you've found them to be.
Still think you should speak with Dave Doddek, Great Lakes Panteras. Think he shelled three or four stock block engines on his turbo car. He broke about everything on his way up the curve. Think first he dropped a valve. Then found the limit for stock rods. Then the block. His website is down at the moment.
Good luck.

I don't seem to be able to find this company. Where is Professional EFI Systems located and what is their website address? I have been thinking about some type of fuel injection system for my Pantera, but want to make the correct choice the first time.
