Got the car on the dyno. Sorted the air/fuel and hammered down 369/379... Oops. A bit too much. After putting it back on a throttle stop, ended up basically the same as last year (328/348).
Last year was 327/349 with the same throttle stop.

The LT1 Whisperer showed up at the Orange is Fast! garage last night.We put in new plugs/wires and fired it up. Still seemed to have a miss so we started troubleshooting. Pulled inector plugs 1/3/5/7 and motor bogged as we pulled them. (Yes Rob, one at a time) Bogged when we pulled #2. Nothing changed when we pulled #4. Huh? Nothing changed when running on 7 cylinders... maybe that's because it was already running without the #4 hole.Yup, broken +12v wire. Explained the potential intermittency while it broke itself.Spliced and taped, fired right up with a smoother idle. Still probably only 230ish horsepower... nothing to see here.See you guys Friday.

Guys, I had some work events come up and will not be able to make this weekend's race. My apologies for the late cancellation. I have a conflict for Cresson, so see you at TWS.

Just when I was beginning to worry about Rob's level of self-confidence......nice work.
Well of course one of the ball joints that came in yesterday wasn't the right part number in the box. Shop didn't have the right tool to press in the good one in either. So I still have the front totally torn apart along with the rear calipers needing replacement...typical.

The schedule has been revised. An email with the new schedule should be sent later tonight or tomorrow.
Where do the campers and RV's live at MSR-H, I have never noticed them when I've been. Also, I am having generator troubles, would someone with a RV(Jerry, John, etc) be willing to share a bit of power for a heater at night? I can toss some gas money.
If push-comes-to-shove I can bring my standalone generator for you. Anna and I are staying at one of the hotels at Angleton.
The generator is kind of loud but not much louder than the generator of the RV I rented at MSRC last year. Just let me know before I finish packing the truck tomorrow night
