Explain to me how you're going to deadlift a engine out of a engine bay unless you're 12 feet tall......... and still, that wouldn't necessarily be called a dead lift.

My lift had similar form to this.

Curl 225x8? If so, you must be monstrous and/or on roids. Haha.

He's monstrous...naturally.

He can kill 2 stones with a bird.
He can slam a revolving door.
His house has no doors, only walls that he walks through.
Archeologists unearthed an old english dictionary dating back to the year 1236. It defined "victim" as "one who has encountered VikingWarHammer"

you're running just one EGT sensor?


I'm in europe and looking for a double probe EGT kit. it's nowhere to be found. Only single one at about 200 euro. So I might end up with 2 bungs, swithcing the EGT sensor from one runner to the other.

Yes and no... one sensor for each runner. Just because i've been reading up on Howard Coleman's findings. However... I could also have 2 bungs welded in and switch them from time to time to check..

I would run two so you can see if your front rotor is running richer or leaner than the rear...
