  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Doctor Oldsmobile that is!! I spent the afternoon at Casey's house where we dialed in my fuel spewing, generally mis-behaving 36 year old Carter AVS. After some fine tuning, the carb is performing admirably!! We made quite a few passes up and down Wabash! That is one of the benefits of living where Casey does. Your personal Test & Tune track!! I think I left about a 1/4" of BFG Radial T/A tread out there!! :3gears: Wonder if my new 340 is broken in yet??? :grin:
    KUDOS to CASEY! :TU:

    Cool Deal

    Hey Casey,
    How are you with ThermoBOG's? Can't really complain about how it preforms on the Challenger though. I've owned it for 21 years and have never done any adjusting.
    Wouldn't mind the TnT on Wabash though :3gears: :TU:

    Wabash has heap big ditches. Be careful. One of these days they're going to have the cops out there. Wait a minute....they did...at the shindig!

    We'll be down there tomorrow to do some minor finagling then off to T n T at Milan. Carb being overnighted in tonight. Wahoo!

    I know! I took my eyes off the road to look at the factory tach ( buried waaaaay under the dash on top of the console ) to compare rpms with my new Autometer, and next thing you know, Caseys gripping the door and and warning me that I'm drifting over! :shock:

    Good luck with your carb! Go easy on the ricers at Milan!

    :laugh: :laugh:

    Obviously Casey told you about the ricer that was playing road rage with me in the shutdown area last time we were there with the Ramrod. :rant: Any sign of that today and the Power Stroke gets unhitched from the trailer and put through tech. He'll get there first, but I may drift into his lane after the traps. :bglasses:
