This time suppose to have brkt racing from 8sec to 15sec.1k for each winner.Should be a good turnout.But not going to run my truck if I dont fix this valve float issue.Its really pissing me off!

It's not like I don't wanna go to Jackson meet.. Y'all just always put it on the wrong date so I got to go thru Houston to get home so why not stop by & race a little..

The PAC 1218 springs are installed and it sounds awesome.Made a run up to 6400 rpm with no issues.I swear I'll never buy another set of comp 918's springs again!

Thats great news. I just installed some PAC 1518's with some decently aggressive Lobes on my cam with no issues.
