Looks like there is rain for tonight. That sucks when both David and myself finally got our cars back and we can BOTH go out there with them.

The Volumetric efficiency and keeping pressure up with bottle headers is MUCH better with 2x10s than 1x20 # bottle.
i had 2 x10s Y'ed together and a 300 watt heater on each. I could make 6 back to back pulls on a baby 175 shot before i would start dropping pressure.. after 10 hits i was down from 1000 to 900#
