You could try a BR6EF plug also. Keep the heat range and move to the non-projected tip.
I think it's got something to do with the voltage though. Definitely concentrate on the voltage drop. Might be worth plopping a stock rebuild alternator in just to see how it acts.

Be expensive, but would be interesting to toss on a dyno with a heavy battery charger maintaining voltage and see if it blows out spark.
Correlation does not imply causation.

funny story, i have an aquaintance as does osie, who has a dynocom dyno in his garage, 10 mins away. @Ltconvert maybe we should call up eric and ask him for a few pulls (and your snowplowing LOL)
we are actually doing just that @Fastbird , reman alt going in, as well as a new exciter pigtail. going to possibly try the spare ground idea too.
I just looked at the log again, the car is breaking up slightly at wot in 3rd gear up to the stripe. only revved to 6350.
dyno log from 2017 shows a voltage drop but only down to 12.4v. at idle back then it was 13.6, now its 13.1, weird.

10.78 at 125mph. thats all shes got for the year. the alternator and added ground seems to be helping, i did not see the voltage dropping now. left the 6k tune in it because the track didnt have good traction today.
Just want to thank everyone on here that has helped us along the way. car has totally surprised us and lived up to what people were saying it could do. happy holidays everyone!
