HOLY COW!

I post one itty bitty question before going to bed... then I wake up and have a TON of excellent information at my disposal. This website totally rules... really.

3400 miles on the odo... last drive was this past Saturday.

I have noticed quite a bit of "lost" power in the past few months... only getting about 430 HP at the flywheel... should be more like 530... maybe those plugs (4 and 8) haven't been hitting for quite a while, huh?

I haven't upgraded to the newer transformer-type of coil yet, still using the old "bottle-type" coil. I may change it, though. Will it really make much difference? The recommended gap with this setup is .045 in accordance with my engine builder. I have not yet checked the old plugs to see how close they match that requirement. Won't be driving it to work today... oh well... (sigh).

P.S. Taking TONS of pics of Caleb. These digital cameras are great for that!

P.P.S. I usually try to drive it like a stole it, when local law enforcement isn't within earshot.
