How can you expect to feel a difference when you didn't fix the problem?

I don't have the plugs yet so I'm not gonna say anything about them. They will be going in when my engine goes back together though

Well if I don't have to work tomorrow I'm gonna try to drop my block off at the machine shop. The one day shift girl is off till thursday though. I covered her shift yesterday and was told I'll cover her this week too. When I get a free day I'll drop it off and go from there. I'm gonna go do some more work on my intake now. Been pushing off the small stuff but need to get it ready I guess.

Just figured I'd save you some keyboard time! Unless of course you like that sort of thing.

I had a ping @ WOT and once in a great while @ 2/3 throttle, and decided to try the 3923 plugs. Now I don't have any ping.

My real problem is a slightly leaky plenum gasket. "Modified keggar" intake with Hughes plenum plate installed sitting in my garage, just waiting for the funds to build up to have it installed.

Until then, the 3923s helped and I could feel it a tad with the butt dyno. Think its a combination of them and the tune.
