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)
