Lucky Dog, I hate to be the one to tell you but guessing until you get it right is the only way to tune your engine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also if you noticed Hammertime has a 582 and you have 516 which means that is not the tune-up for you. JMO

Davis, yeah, but what you didn't know is that I am fortunate enough to have 2 engines #1 588 ci #2 516 ci running everything the same except shortblocks. also, I never said I was going to use anyone else's tuneup.... just that I was curious where everyone else was at. The 588 ci. (4.500x4.560)has been run all season, as often as possible, and being freshened up. The 516 ci (4.00x4.530)is the backup. I'm running for points. I don't know how to do a avatar but if you care to see my car its on umtrdragrace.com in photo galleryunder a couple different dates, its the wild purple 65 malibu.
