What rubber are you running on at the track I am also removing the exhaust crossover. Maybe I sould have the intack polished can I do this myself what is involved? Does it greatly improve the flow?

LOL...
I polished the outside...LOL...I don't think the polishing made it go faster...LOL

I have a new set of MT street drag radials 275/50/15" on some old ET 10" wheels

Removing the crossover will help reduce unwanted heat under the carb and if the crossovers are filled in the heads it will help balance the exhaust flow resulting in HP gains.

What are you doing wasting time on the outside I thought you polished the runners to improve flow or something. Show won't make it go LOL. Chrome won't get you home LOL. The rubber sounds good does it really hook up well. Got to go eat turkey with Mom and the wife and kids. Again thanks for the help. Have a great holiday.
