Default Taking the car for some shakedown passes tonight

Gonna try out my new 12:1 compression big-cammed 346. So far initial impressions say it picked up ALOT of power but my butt-o-meter hasn't been calibrated recently <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I'm gonna make a few easy passes and then hopefully go *****-to-the-wall for at least one pass (but it'll probably be crowded as hell with rice tonight since its only in the low 80s today <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> )

Did you swap out that lazy 02?

Good luck.

I hope all goes well for you.

BTW, if you figure out somewhere to get the butt-dyno calibrated, let me know. Mine is seriously out of whack! <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />
