Hopefully the DA will be decent and humidity wont be too high. You should do good in the 13.00 index John. Bring that hot rod on down!!

Dont know if I hurt my motor or what, but its slowed down a good bit. Probably end up running 14.0 index.

Havent done a compression test on it. But its way down on power. Even after resetting the fuel table and making sure it has good gas. Should be going 13.4's in this weather based on my logs, and it went a 13.88, 13.95, 13.99 the other day @ 101mph. And a 2.25 60' lol. Not exactly sure whats going on. So gonna put EFIlive on it and logs some passes this week if I can. Either way, will be at LSfest!

I hope it's just something as simple as reduced power mode.

Holy crap that's a lot of passes!!! I bet once you log that thing you'll find out its pulling a bunch of timing for who knows what reason!!
