not sure on the plenum, but it didn't do so well tonight, 13.11@101 is the best it would do with a 10-15 mph head wind

first 4 passes and no traction at all 2.01 60' with a 13.20 1/4 times with 101.?? mph. last pass got it to stick and pulled a 1.85 60' time, but the head wind was hurting some but not sure about the rest of the setup, will play with longer push rods and new spark plugs then run it again sunday.

well checked it this moring with auto tap and one 02 sensor was bad, maf was reading funky, didn't think about it much untill last night, when we were filling it up wiith water and antifreeze it burped real good and threw it up all over the open filter and maf must of taken in some water, so I clean it this morning and put in a new 02 sensor, will see how that does sunday.

No conversion for headwind unless you happen to know the drag coefficient of our trucks, I have never seen it posted anywhere.
