If the “adjusted “ converter didn’t pick the car up then it came out and we tried something different

That way you never lost what you had and that worked with Q-Jets too...

No computers just 1320’ and a time slip...

Marv Ripes was a way ahead of the curve when he said load up your car and come down to OCIR for a test session with 60’ clocks...

He said bring work clothes and he sat at a card table with the first 60’ clocks that I had ever seen...

We worked our butts off and ran 5 or 6 different converters through the race car that day and I would like to add it was a productive day
That's exactly how it's done!!!!!!!!
