There is a lot of good advice here but in the first post you stated that it took the voltage a while to come up,I have seen batteries that had a bad plate in them and they would short occasionally and when that happened the current to the ECM would not be adequate and the ECM would not operate...
I did it last year just because I wanted to learn all I could and it was great,I am surprised a year later how much more comfortable I am in turns in the F32.His course is worth every penny!!!
I had a F29 with 2 Ilmor 710 motors,it would run 137 with JJ Gibbs Bravo props,I had 3 sets from Hering and the last set would finally run 135 on a very good air day,they are just too thick but hey are durable.If you have a #6 drive the Hering 5 blade is very good.
I did the Whipple stage 2 to a 380 HP 8.2 and took out the catalyst,it is perfect with about15-20 hours on it.Mine is a 2011 boat so it has the 3 catalysts on each side and it was not a digital motor so I had to machine the restrictor to the size of the throttle body.search 8.2 Mercury and you...
Well I have about 15 hours without a glitch my daughter was at the lake house this weekend with her husband and 3 other couples,the guys are huge weighing 270,250,240 and 180, the ladies are also somewhat large at 180, 170,150,130 the Cobalt A25 with the 8.2-380 hp with the catalyst removed and...
I think that anyone selling race fuel has an attitude about av gas because it is a superior fuel for less money.I have heard all kind of BS about av gas being a dry fuel,high altitude fuel,low lead fuel,low octane fuel,etc.The reality is that anyone that has extensive time running a dyno with...
100LL is 100 octane by aviation standards not automotive standards.I have discussed this with many engine builders and the thought is that it is between 108-114 depending on whom you talk to.
Yes you are right it is controlled in a very strict way by the FAA as far as transportation,specific gravity,reid vapor pressure,lead content,etc.I have used av gas in vintage Nascar Winston Cup cars for 18 years and had 1 motor that was 14.9 to 1 compression ratio and the av gas made more horse...
Coach K is one of the best at preparing for the opposition,it will be interesting to see Monday's game.If Duke wins coach K will be considered the best in modern times by most sports analyst.
Yes,I watched both sessions of alcohol,they were the best I have ever seen.The TAFC really has a bunch of drivers from all over the world and apparently they have brought money with them.
I was there today when Pat Dakin ran a 3.715 in the first round of qualifying,he usually is satisfied to make the show.The density altitude was below sea level and the temperature was about 48 degrees with the track 88.
