What fuel? 36-38 degrees would be a good starting point

1970chevy · 04-15-2008, 03:51 AM

i am runing vp 110

djracer · 04-15-2008, 02:43 PM

don't spray it with 110. I would say a minimum of 114 on the spray.

"its 2500 cfm fan"

Personally I prefer a fan (or fans) with 4000 + cfm with shroud. But since this is a race only deal...
