An A/F meter would be hiden for checking the setup at cruise to not have a lean out. The other thing is blower bang, Don't run the motor at WOT and then shut down the throttle to idle. Does the blower have a small blow up valve? If so then you are all right. Heat is not your friend. Adding a couple of small blowers to the fender ducts will help remove some of it to cool down under the hood. Nice setup Good luck Rick L.
Thanks Rick. We seem good on temps. Of course we are not testing at 95 degrees this time of year. The Snow setup is something we were talking about the other day. I think that would be phase 3 for the customer. The most amazing thing we saw on the dyno was a nearly level torque line from 3800-6000 rpm.
