Default Irwindale tonight 5/17 - come on down!

For all you So Cal members, I'm making a trip to Irwindale tonight to do a couple shake down runs on the new motor and KB set-up. Don't expect miracles, I'm running a very conservative 15 psi on pump gas tonight and expecting smooth 6.9's and we'll turn it up a bit next week while we gradually break her into the big psi ranges.

If anyone is planning on heading down, stop by and say hi.[sm=icon_guiness.gif][sm=icon_cheers.gif]

My car is the one that says 'chevykiller' accross the back of it.

I see you got rid of the turbo. I was picking up my car the day you were at ST and your car kept running hot.

5-10 pm.

Yep - turbo is by-by. I am getting ready to head out and I've only got 300 miles on the car so I swapped pulleys and am only going to run about 13 psi tonight. Probably be in the 7.20's range. Not bad for 416 rwhp I'll be running tonight. (silly dyno chasers, HP is for girls - men use torque...lol)

Hope to see some of you guys tonight.

I'm out!

Mark

Near the 210 and the 605 freeways, east of Pasadena.

How many cars are usually there on Thursdays?
