If there is even tenth to be found in the tune-up, that'd be all I need. I'm already under the index in good air, but as soon as I get to marginal air, I'm in trouble.

Good morning to all,
I have walked through your shoes and spent many years learning to go fast.
I made a lot of mistakes as did many others on this forum. That said, you might be able to answer a good many questions by going to a dyno, put the engine on it and run it! You will spend a few dollars here - but what you will learn in one eight hour day will help more then you now know. Yes - I know the cost is substantial , but when someone ( like a Mfg. ) asks you a question, you can answer them and produce HP & Torque numbers and that's what people need to see in order to help you.
If you're guessing , then thats about all they can do too.
You might think that is extreme but you'll find out information it would take a whole season to find out.
Just my 2 cents from over here on a little Rock off the coast.
Respectfully,
