I don't believe it's a converter issue.I was standing right there.
It went 85 under on the first pass. BJ didn't quite get it fully on the two step and it kinda rolled out on that run..still went that fast.
Next run , it looked good leaving on the two step.Surprisingly it slowed down over 2 tenths.
The head wind was quite strong at times, early on.

1st round Saturday, I assume Mike discounted the second TT ,and dialed kinda off the 1st one.
After the red light ,it ran 4-5 tenths over the dial.
My comment was .."You ought to be able to find it now".

Mike..You remember I told you about my street bracket car?
I had replaced the stock HEI module and coil with a slightly used MSD 6 A and a used Blaster coil.
Last two outings, it's been about 5 tenths slower than in the beginning .
The car starts, runs and drives perfectly.
I'm going to change it all back as soon as I get a chance.
