Thanks!

Hey Fazm....top end tuning wasn't 100%. 1.32 60' and 5.91 1/8 dictates much quicker than high 9's. Need more track data! The brand new block I put in had a non visible crack in it below the freeze plugs in a non-stress location. It must have been frozen with some water in it. So....need another block to put her back together again!
