                My scope died, but the real issue is time. If everything went perfect it would have run OK, but since we only got about 2/3 of a day to do the entire electrical system on the car due to the other "usual setbacks" (which result in mad thrash at the last minute) - it wasn't going to happen. I prefer not to call it "crank sensor problems" more "time management problems." I can figure anything out with a little time, but I ran out - had to be back at my job at 6am the next morning, got home at 1am as it was...

                  Understandable.

                      Your a good man geek. Jeff knows how much effort ya put into it and I'm sure he's grateful. Sometimes it's just not in the cards. But from what I hear the thrash continues. Keeping my fingers crossed for Jeff to get it going.

                        Sorry to hear the Blue Bu won't be there this year, was anxious to see how that thing really runs on all 8 cylinders and not sucking crankcase fumes through the intake ports. Was hoping someone has stepped up in SSSB/NA to give Jeff a better challenge than my underpowered tank gave him last year.

                        We are planning on returning in 2014, with an MS3x system being wired right now, might be looking for advice soon.

                              Scott has always bailed me out from my problems, he has never been the issue, the car goes fast despite the handicap I always put Scott under. He has Gave up every Labor Day Weekend for I don't know how long for me. I cannot express the debt I owe him for ALL he has done on my car. Plus he is my son's Hero LOL Turbo's & power adders that does not come from me.
