Jeeze Bob, what an offer! How much willI have to contribute so that yo
can handle the funds,lol..
Since there is a common point or nearly so, in all the runs then what is
the common item. Well, I am now leaning to vlave float. But softly. With
10 pounds of boost in th emanifold, the intakes see abot 30 pluss pounds
on the back side. And that is reducing the seat presure on th esprings.
So If I installed the springs at a badd height and the pressure on the
back side is 10 I could be gently floating the valves. I have ordered a
seat pressure test doo hickey so thayt will for sure help to solve the
riddle.
Now I want ya'll to know that I did a lot of aerodynamics in my life, so
the aero thingy is not unknown to me. In fact I have all that stuff on
my web site in the analysis section. Plus Ihave some sophisticated
software that has 90 plus inputs which lets me tune the car for speed.
http://www.mayfco.com/ clickon the active link and then enter the site
then click on the analysis section.
Allof it says it should be good. If the motor is making power. So, I
am going to test these springs, and replace hem if I need to. Then try
again on the dyno, if Bob has collected enough that there is some money
left over. After all Christmas is coming, lol..
I may go to a different dyno however, as this one was a booger to get
the car onto.
Keep thinking..
