Good call Travis, I figured you'd know. I did know that temperature changes power, but not the humidity factor. (For every 10 degree drop in ambient air temperature, you gain an approximate 2% HP. The more powerful your car, the more it will affect you.)

You got that right......im planning on going to the track in the fall and see where my car is at. I will probably go easy off the line and then rip on it from there because i need my stock clutch to last a while yet. Im more looking for trap speed than an e.t.

I worry about the same thing with the clutch. I cannot afford a new one. Dan told me that even with a bog off the line you're trap speeds will still be the same. I should go up with you. Too bad your car with half my mods is just as fast if not faster! Damn IX's!

Yeah im bascially just going to roll out easy then put it to the floor.......and yes it doesnt effect trap speed.
Thats the boat I am in....cant afford it now. I've been trying to talk my parents into moving out to Pittsburgh so I can move back in with them and free up like $700.00 worth of monthly living expenses!

Let me know if anyone needs any of the following:
Stock o2 housing (good for porting)
stock exhaust manifold (good for porting)
10.5 hotside (needs some work - stripped stud and broken bolt)
Other random stock parts (I'm gonna hold on to everything unless one of the locals needs something.)
Anyone doing the manifold, O2 housing, etc install, I have a ton of brand new studs, nuts, bolts, etc. If anyone ever breaks something around there, let me know and I can most likely help you out.
