Glad to hear you'll do some dyno work before you make the trip down the salt, especially given the huge number of changes that have occurred.

Having been through the embarrassment of running an untested engine, I think you'll be miles ahead of the game. 

Get it close - don't throw it away in the bullpen.

Gosh, Buddy - I'll see you next week!  :cheers:

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

 Hi Guys here is an up-date on the Dyno

Well it has been a rough start #1 Dales Friday night flight was canceled , he had to get a flight out this morning and arrived at 10, # 2 the airline lost all his luggage, including the Mags and all the wiring setups , after 5 hours they got a call the luggage was on its way !!! So Right now they are finally starting to put the car together to fire up late tonight and if all is good start the tune in the morning. So Keep your fingers crossed we have no more set backs

Now that's an interesting approach - just keep blending fuel until it matches the jets.  :-D

That's  an unusual-sounding statement for blown-alky. Old-school constant-flow? Can't just keep going larger with the bypass pill?
