New times and a problem
Previous best 13.816@102.19
Today:
13.591 @ 103.78 spun off the line and the 1-2 and 2-3 shifts.
14.119 @ 101.06 Missed the 2-3 shift
13.906 @ 103.09 bogged
14.114 @ 104.40 bogged then spun
13.818 @ 104.25 bogged
13.832 @ 101.08 bad news
On the return road after the last run I hear a clicking noise from the engine. Well it's coming from the drivers side valve cover. So I crawled home and am gonna look at it tomorrow. Hopefully just a bent pushrod or loose rocker stud. No SOTP loss in power, but if you look at the last 2 runs, same engine temp at start of race, somethings not right, cause both felt the same to me.
Sounds like the 3rd cylinder on the drivers side(#5). Gonna look in the morning.
P.S. This was after Longtubes and no cats and plugs/wires last week.

All 6 Header bolts were loose. Tightened them down and presto, no more noise.
Edit: just drove car and no noise, dodged a bullet there for sure.
