Sounds clean, I'm guessing they changed the timing curve to increase the torque with no real horsepower change? Those are big block numbers, with way less cubes. Wait a minute, those are big block cubes. LOL

lol.. how about "with way less weight"

Yea, he fussed with the timing a bit.. tried to stay conservative since he knows we will be beating it with 91 octane.. I have an intermitant cam sensor.. only on start up. Sometimes if fires right up, sometimes it just cranks. Going to replace the small harness, sensor and check the plug tomorrow.

It sounds quite angry when you get on it... I need to break in the clutch.. tempting to just flog it.

She's a sick bitch. I can't wait to run em. It would be cool if you cruised her over and we made a weekend of it. Race, some shooting(Guns), and a photo shoot.
