With a good launch iIt only ran 8.02 at 86.5 mph. The engine stumbled a little after changing into second and noticeably after shifting into third gear. We discussed the spark plugs so I went to Twilight Zone and got 12 Bosch Iridium IX heat range 7 for $6.99 each. When removing the old plugs I found Bosch Super Plus gapped at .27. I'll be gapping the new plugs at .35. Any idea why they went with a .27? See you at the track.
Maybe the previous owner was running nitrous. That gap is way overkill otherwise. I think you'll notice a nice power increase opening it up to .035. See you Sunday.
