Cool ???

Don't know... spent 8 hours climbing under, over, through and everything else. Moved ejector from cyl. 8 to cyl.2 to see if miss would follow. Started car and it was STILL missing... by the time I opened the door to go check the header on #2 IT QUIT RUNNING BAD! Never got a chance to check out the 2 cylinder header for heat!!?? Sooo... I dunno what was going on!!!

Arrow H.R. Hawk...

...Lapeers web page says they open at NOON on Saturdays. Where did you come up with the 10:00 AM time?

Joe:
Cost is $25.00 and I don't think Lapeer is very crowded on Saturdays.?!

Arrow Thanks Hawk...

... for all the time / work you put into programming the redtird and for only the cost of a Code Red Moutain Dew!!

I'll get her to Milan where the hook is GOOD next Sunday and give her the test. By the way it felt good to win a couple of rounds in their little race and I only redlit in the third round with a .491 . The only car there that I truely feared was that 6.XX second Falcon. He was eatin' other cars for lunch!

BY the way if you get a chance to read the data recorder, let me know, I'm interested.

Again... THANKS!

Hay Hink, any time bro!
I'm glad to help ya out man, I'll look over the run log alittle and have some input for ya

Sundays results = happyhappy

Hay, The plug gaps were causing saturdays blus for me after all.
Todays performace was :
.22X lower ets and 4.4 mph faster on same tune and only gapping plugs down to .028

the other gain was trap rpm.
sat: 5900~6000
sun: 6300

Its getting closer to being able too carry the gearing after all.
I,m feeling alittle better about this 3:70 ratio...
...for now


:HAPPYHAPPYHAPPY:
