Wouldn't expect to see any gains on a dyno anyway.....but at 140+ in the 1/4 surely it'd be good for 1-2mph.......I may rig up something temporary to see what it picks up and if it does make something permanent.

This picked up a tenth on my car, as well as 2 others (1 which has a 4" harwood cowl induction hood) and it also helps with consistency. If you need #s let me know.

lol Derek. I see a red X
Coach, I'm almost finished. I'm doing all the work myself and it's taking some time. I need to do some wiring under the dash, install the dash, gauges and switches. Install the seats. Put in some tranny fluid, water in the rad, then set the car up.
My friend 2001PewterWs6 is coming over this saturday to wet sand and buff the car. I hope to be turning the key very soon.
