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) |

Cool, thanks for the input. I'll try that, too.
Brett, you're right about the springs. I was running the engine to 6400 RPM regularly. Thanks, again!!! Now, I don't know why, but #1 stopped firing as I took the checker... need to get into that. Oh, yeah, another interesting bit of information from my data......... I max out at 116 on the straight, which might explain a good portion of the gap between me and the leaders. Last year at the Runoffs, the faster guys were seeing 130-135 mph at the end of the straight. |
