Rick, i`m looking fwd to those wires.
As far as the dyno testing, Jeff`s right with the water temp. When i`m at the track i like to keep the water temp in the 100/120 area if possible. FAST is a heads-up class and i need to go fast. AS far as dyno`ing with the water pump, alt, air cleaner, etc,etc... I dyno lots of engines, i have a plastic container with the stuff i bring when dyno`ing a motor. Bottom line it`s just easier for me, that `s the way i do it. I`m just using the engine dyno as a basic tool, i`ll do the fine tuning on the rear wheel dyno or at the track while i`m using the complete exhaust system, fuel system, and all the stuff we actually have to run with, in the car were using.
