Today was fun. Glad to see the LT1's representing

 

Sorry I missed it,but it was great to finally fire up my car.High compression and a loppy Cam running through open Headers really gets the blood boiling

 

Yeah it was great met some more people here on the board. TUnedport335 where were you?

My84Z and Realquick it was great talking to you, we'll have to get together again soon. later


Shawn

 

I couldn't make it unfortunately.

Friggin A ....maybe by next dyno day I'll have my turd down there on the dyno.

 

great talking and seeing the guys that showed up it was a good day I just wish everyoe showed up it was a great day and Thank you Dean for putting them on for us!

 

Shawn, it was nice meeting you too. We should meet up at the track in April.

 

ya it was cool meeting up with some of you finally. one day I will even show up with a car

 

I had a good time, even though I didn't dyno. RealQuick, nice meeting you. After the dyno I went back to Jim's and ran the cooling system pressure tester on my car (Sat was her first day out). As I suspected the cooling system does not hold pressure. However, I am pretty sure it is the head gasket and not a crack in an exhaust port, as when you start the car with the pressure tester attached the pressure builds more quickly than just from the heating of the coolant alone. So what that means is combustion chamber pressure is being vented into the cooling system.... At least that is what I think. I'll have to run the pressure tester on Jim's car to see how quick just heating hte coolant builds pressure for a comparison.

Joe, it was a pleasure meetng you as well. You got a sweet bird there. How did you make out on the dyno? Any gains? Hopefully you get your coolant leak worked out. I am having an annoying oil leak from the timing cover that I have tried to fix twice. Oh well, nature of the beast I guess. Good luck, and if I pick up tunercat I'll shoot you an email for pointers. Later.
