Good News First...

I went wheels up about 6 inches on the first pass...

Thats about it for the good news...

Bad news... lets start from the beginning.

Oil pressure issues with the new enging... so I pull the intake to change the sending unit... and what do I find... OIL ALL OVER THE INTAKE AND INTAKE PORTS OF THE HEADS just dripping down..

So im pissed... call the guy who built the engine and he lives about 1/4mi away, comes over we do a leak down test on 3 cyl. first one 8%... last two 20-25%

Ok back to the Wheels Up pass...

ok go wheels up about 150ft out posi lets go and start smokin a tire another 200ft down the track... Time 12.1 @ 113~ 1.73 60ft, track temp about 100 deg and DA 3000

Next Pass... weather cooled down... leaned car about a bit... was 11.8-12.3 on dyno day or two ago... ran 11.89 @ 114, no posi smokin the driver tire out the hole...

So thats about it... Take all the info for what its worth...
