Hey Kevin, nice update info.

What do you think of the new data logger? Got all the ports full yet? LOL We added a forum for Randy over on my site if you're interested http://www.dragstuff.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=8

I'm curious where you finally found the oil getting into your intake ports?

Hey John, I welded 1/2" aluminum bar stock to the bottom of my intake where it meet the frt and rr rails of the block because the gap was too big in my opinion. The bar stock was too close to the heads and as the motor heated up and the heads and everything expanded, it kicked the intake to one siade and pulled it off the head just enough to let oil in.... We cut the bar stock end parallel to where the head bolts up and no more leak....

No major changes.... I will be putting a new set of rods in it and that will be it for the motor... I will be looking for sponsorship this offseason and if it is obtained I will be doing some 10.5 racing..... :D
