life is a joy!
well fella's i think i am going to more frequent on the forums now due to my owi.
Anyways i was wondering if anyone has been following jay browns dyno experiments.
I discovered that the edelbrock performer rpm intake is capable of 300+ cfm stock, thanks to jdc on network54. I had previously believed the rpm was holding my combo back, but thats not the case. I had also believed the blue thunder intake to be superior as far as dual planes go, but the rpm is right there and better in come cases.
I got to thinking about reporting my current cylinder heads, as i know it was nothing real fancy and one of my earlier porting jobs. More or less my knowledge is ever expanding. Thens there that monkey wrench owi charge last night! I guess i still have nine days to drive the old 79 around.
enough of my oddball ramblings!

Matt bummer on the owi. Hope it all works out....you should be able to get a permit for working. My son went through that years ago. To make things worse he was caught driving while under his dui suspension. We had a good laywer thankfully....or the boy would have spent a year in the slammer. 
Yea I've been following all the stuff over there. The intake flow comparison by Joe is equally as informative as all Jay's testings. I can wait to see the big cube stuff coming up over the summer!! Pretty cool and this is like Mythbusters for FE's. Better than TV!!

You know, I've been thinking about porting another set of heads for my 390. Something to replace the crappers on there now. This time I'd probably go for more the full effort porting job instead of the simple clean-up I did last time.
Porting cylinder heads is quite the time consuming activity; if you need something to do.
Yeah, sorry about the OWI. Cant say I relate though, I keep it at one beer. I can make one beer last a looooong time.
