Sounds good!!

Also, just wanted to let you guys know. A guy over on S197 posted that Henson Performance is having a dyno day April 2nd. Starts at 10 a.m. and it's $40 for 3 pulls. Grilling out and hanging out.

I am gonna ride down, he said he may or may not be doing tuning, just making pulls. He said if it small such as a/f tweaking and timing adjustment, he can work with it.
