    Nah. She's only turning 5000 rpm. Making about 400 hp. She'll run like that for a long time. Besides, I'm real easy on it (until the end of the season).
    I installed a boost gauge over the weekend and it says 4 lbs. at 5000 rpm. Of course this only a driveway figure. I was hoping to put it in the water today, but I' hung up on another project.

    I said the hell with it and put the Heatseeker in the river for a little playtime today.
    She sure runs sweet! I observed the following boost readings:
    1000-4500 rpm 20 in hg. vacuum to zero boost
    4600 rpm 2 lbs boost
    4800 rpm 4 lbs. boost
    5000 rpm 5 lbs. boost.
    And that's all she wrote, 5lbs. at 5 grand at 66 mph. According to the berkeley chart, we're pushing about 400 hp.
    I can't wait to get my other engine done!!!
    Hey blowncarerra, you're right, we need to hook up on one of these Mondays for some delta fun.

    I wish I were going for a ride today!!!
    I doubt I'll be going out on Monday, either. Won't know until tomorrow night. I never know what the heck I'm doing one day to the next....
    I'd like to go up to Rollins and hang out with Cas too, but it's way the hell out there for me.
