The Nish team is thinking about insulating the MSD box from engine heat. The box is evidently getting too hot and shutting down the party.
Ken Puccio, Ack Attack crew chief, says they've done lots of stuff. A new tail piece is ready - if they decide to use it. They've upped boost with bigger turbos -- can make 35 pounds. Don't want to -- did it earlier today and blew open the airbox, so welded it back and are going to return to the 27# they made on the dyno. That's about 800 hp. They're gearing for 390 with the engines spinning 10,200 -- vs. last year's 9,500. The MoTeC sensors are giving goofy data - so the team has gone to high-zoot stuff -- Suzuki factory pieces for things like cam position sensors. They're running fine.
Rocky will likely make a test and tune pass today to see what things are like in the real world, not just the shop and the dyno.
Speed Demon is still not back in the pit -- still fiddlin' with the car onto the transporter. And- I see the Nearburg car out in the sunlight, so that's a good sign -- out of the trailer for the first time today.
