Steve and the List,

Good point.  Question is (and it may be stupid,) but can we not tweek the
timing a bit as well to offset for the altitude??  I currently run my Accel
dual point at 7 degrees BTC and am thinking about changing it to 10 BTC.
The only thing I can't recall right now is if it is better to retard or
advance timing at high altitudes.

And no, I ain't gonna bench the double-pumper for the weekend.......may
however, adjust the timing and the fuel regulator....for what it's worth.

See you all up there......look for the geek in the white Tigger, sporting a
tad of facial hair, who keeps asking to take a picture of your Tiger.
Please note:  geek is known to carry a six pack for consumption at any time.

Regards,

Allan

1) Just a little reminder about "tuning".  Big Bear is above 5,000 feet (I
believe), and unless you are going to re-jet your carb, wxpect really poor
performance.  If you do rejet your carb, do it up there, or expect a
miserable
and lean trip to the site.  If you do alter the tuning for altitude, it
still
won't perform anywhere neart sea-level standards, due to lack of oxygen.

2) Don't tell the Vettes!

Steve
