I don't think I can afford to make a run, but it would be cool to come watch. I haven't had the chance to do anything since school started (heck, I've only been to Hooters once since being back in the triangle!), so I'm itching to get out before it gets too cold!

True Blue is in Garner. Nice place and very friendly to us Vette people (they are a Ford performance shop).
I have a Mustang guy that'll want to come too.

AFRs (190) came in today. Going on tomorrow. New cam is in (218/224, .495/.528 w 114 LS and 110 ICL) Will dyno this time with ported CFI manifold and 2" TBs before installing the Offy. WOOOOHOOOO...
Rob, I have a pair of Dunlop 8000 on 16" C4 9.5" wheels we can stick on her for the dyno runs...

Re: Raleigh area members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (SCALF)
Damn! I just saw my class runs two saturdays. I'll have to check and see what time I'll get out if we do it the 27th.
Another thing to mention... Someone told me the other day that Wake county changes the gas back over to the non-summer version on Nov. 1st. So if we wait a week we don't have to worry about that.

Re: Raleigh area members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (dba4life)
See, he can't do the 27th so we should back it up a week. Then we get the normal gas too.
In the summer time Wake County (and many others) add stuff to the gas to help with emissions. This causes knocking and other problems when on a dyno. MJS and I both had KR kick in on our dynos earlier.

Re: Raleigh area members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (BKVIEW4U)
That's what I did at the Mustang dyno..put half of a tank of 100 in. But SSHHHHH! I'm trying to use it as an excuse to back it up one weekend so I'll be 100% sure to be there...in case I can't get out of class.
