I don't know about being anyone's hero. I'm just a Dodge pro stock fan my self. I put everything I have into this. Last weekend it finally ran like what I been seeing on the dyno. This weekend is going to be a different challenge because the weather is a lot worse than Sonoma. Keep watching I'm going to get it figured out.

The Mopars are the only reason I watch pro-stock, always rooting for you.

Mr. Carter,

Hope you’re doing well. Going to Indy that will be fun, I’m sure you know it’s a different tune-up there. When we went back 16 it was hot and no air compared to Florida air.

We can get about 10 runs on the intakes and 20 on the exhaust.

Tech snippets like this from the pro's is cool. Always love to hear about the life of a pro stock engine.

What was the spring change intervals before the 10,500 rule? And yes, we keep pulling for you!

Unfortunately no Indy this year, tested at the Gainesville bracket race last weekend and was down couple of MPH, suspicion confirmed yesterday so motor has to come out. And yes, Indy is a barometer wasteland LOL.

Interesting..., I would have figured the life of the springs would be shorter on the exhaust side due to way more exposure to heat.

That 10.5 rule ? .., I thought I remembered hearing that spring life was like 5-8 runs eek
