Talked with Jim at VT Engines this morning. We will be changing compression to 10.5 to 1 so the new heads will really be able to breathe. WAHOO. Say "Hello" to low to mid 11's in the 1/4.

RE: Upgrade time
That reminds me... Me and Rich bought Dremels and all the porting and polishing wheels yesterday and I went crazy on my plenum. Ported the bejesus out of it and then polished it. Im gonna go get more porting wheels today and tear into it some more. Im hoping to see 12's at the track. We are going to San An Friday noght is you wanna roll with us. I think Reco is gonna use Jakes slicks. I might use them also if he doesnt mind.
