I'm headed to M-O this weekend to race. Anybody else going?
I'm trying out a few things and uncovered a problem or two in the process. For cooling, I'm running 2-3" ducts from the turn signal openings (one on each side)... I know many of you think it's not enough, but I'm willing to try it out before I run a huge duct. I also replaced by EGT senders with some Westach parts. I was checking to see if they worked and oh, my..... they read a lot higher than my other senders did. I'm guessing the old senders were not the right calibration to work with my Westach gage. I still have to do the alignment, I'm removing some camber to save weight.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) |

You might try something like the factory air deflectors that went at the bottom of the leading edge of the engine compartment. This would upset the airflow entering the compartment from below and maybe help the pressure differential through the fins.
What do you think is your new rev limit? The Y gear should work ok. Last year I was using an X gear with about 145hp and was still below 7K at the end of the back straight. This year I have a V gear and a lot more rpm. |
