disapointing dyno numbers
#16
Let me try to answer a few of your qeustions.
The car will not see much strret driving but when it does it will have a 50/50 mix of 94 and 104. I will always run race gas at the track. I do plan to rev up to 6500 provided the engine is still making power up their. I'm trying to get more detailed specs on the heads but they were ported by a reputable shop.
Now for a new problem I'm losing coolant. I'm not sure where it is going but I don't see smoke I don't see any evidence of coolant in the oil. I was talking to a few guys at alocal speed shop and they said they have seen Exuast find it way int the coolant passages and cook the antifreeze and cause the system to burp some out. I'm wondering if this is it because I have heard some horor stories about getting copper head gaskets to seat. Does this make any sense?
Thanks
Jeff
