The ahfs works best in the heads-up runs.

Has anyone noticed the spike in the price of lead today?

The combo is '69 Camaro, 350, 300 hp. Looks like it will be going from 286 to 295.

And for the keyboard jockeys out there, I was ahead at the 1/8 mile and we were dead even at the 1000 ft so there was no letting off in my lane. It was just too close.

It looks like the 69 models are the only combo affected! The 67-68&70 models all can use different intake manifolds! According to Pat the 83 305 Camaro didn't get hp when the 85 & 86 went 1.20 under at Englishtown last year because it didn't have the same manifold selection available in the guide!

So it only effects the 184 intake equipped engines with that combo ??????

The guide shows the 184 intake only available for 69 models so unless Pat changed his way of doing things from last year it should only affect 69 models!

What about the 2 alternate manifolds in the note section ????

This deal of not checking cars after -1.20 runs is BS. This is just laziness on NHRA part.
