Planning on my first track outing next Friday August 9th. Its a day event put on by a large "old school" car club. I swapped the Northwind intake on last weekend and have a few miles on it. It works really good on the street with the trusty old Holley 950 HP on it. I managed to fit a one inch spacer on top with a 3.25 height air filter..the filter may be a restriction but the track should show that.
I also have quite a few miles on the new electric fans and Cold Case rad everything seems dialed in now with the controller..just need to hook up a manual switch to run them at full speed if needed. The new Wilwood brakes and lines and hoses seem to work pretty good...pedal feel is excellent.
I will try and remember to do a fuel mileage test on the way home..a local Pontiac buddy Wayne is getting 20 to 21 mpg with the same head cam package and 342 gears..I know a few years ago I was at 17 or 18 with 308's
