Wait a minute... Chas was running a SFT that was not a whole lot hotter than mine.

Did you pass under high-tension wires? Your cam is not in the same time zone as mine.
And mine is not what I suggested to Brent.

Because I can't tune for gas and a climate that's 2000 miles from me. You can't tune for low rpm low load operation anyway.

What if I tune for an air cleaner and filter here and he gets it in the car and the air cleaner is shrouded? That would make for a more richer tune and would need correction.

But his elevation is only a couple of hundred feet higher that yours... and his 93 or 91 octane gas is pretty much the same as yours... and you have to tune it anyway, so you would think that you would welcome as many of the conditions that you know will be present when he drives his car to be present when you tune it? But, you're the builder, so I suppose you know best....
