Looks like a good choice. I'll bet it makes for a smoother launch too.

Aaah, a naturally aspirated 427 DOHC Corvette with 700+ H.P. I've got to see that car do the 1/4mi.

I think I'm going to focus on the induction system design, volumetric efficiency and how the engine compares to other benchmarks. Will spend some time talking about the valvetrain specifics and important ratios/measurements for high output.

Finally, I'll present the results of the testing both engine dyno and chassis dyno, and future development opportunities.

I really don't want to repeat the stuff that was in the HOTB article, so I will try to find something different to talk about.

Looking 50/50 that I'll have the car down there. Needs a clutch and WOT chassis dyno tuning before it's safe to take down the 1/4 mile. Will try to make it happen.

I just sent in a schedule change to match the timeline you gave me. Plan on 0900-1000 on Saturday.

Cheers,
Ron
