Our Monza was running mid 12's around Sept. One
Friday night it was 80+ out and the car was running
12.7. I opened the hood and I could not touch the 14x3
CHROME air filter. The car was only running 180,I
removed the filter and the fuel bowls where hot as well.
I iced the fuel line and bowls down,leaving the
filter off Kelly's next pass was 12.3. With the low
hoodline and dropped base airfilter the heat was just
soaking into the CHROME and carb.For serious racing we
should remove the mech. fuel pump and sub an electric
pump with a return line so cooler fuel is always
getting to the fuel bowls.
