We will be running it again Friday afternoon. We just got it back together
after bending a valve in number 4 cylinder last Friday. We are not 100% sure why that happened.
Well, from the MPH at the 660' mark, I'd say you are off at least .3 at that point and maybe losing more down track. You're about 1000 RPM short on the stall for a better ET and 60'. But I see from the other thread that it's a little late.
