oops :shock: well I was driving down the road and I heard a noise kind of like a hissing but over the exhaust it was really quiet and unnoticable, so I let off and thought I better pull over and see whats going on, so as soon as I pull off to the side of the road I see a tiny bit of smoke coming out of the hood louvers, and by then I am a little worried because it kind of sounded like something was frying (water evaporating off header) and the only thing I could think of was the msd box frying or something, but after I got out of the car the smoke was pouring out and I concluded it wasnt the msd, so I slowly opened the hood and there wsa smoke everywhere and I coudl hear the hissing of the hose so I wlked down to our garage (just down the road maybe an 1/8th of a mile) and got some hose crimping pliers and drove it home. fortunately it didnt get any of the electronics wet and it appears not to of harmed anything, I guess after installing the msd box I move ahose somewhere where it could fall off onto the header... just a little bit ago I drove to automotive engineering where I bought the 5000 rpm set and put the 5000 rpm one in, and I found out just how far off my old tach was... I cant get it to bounce off the limiter, I was doing just over 60 when I decided I should shift, and my new tach isnt hooked up yet... ok well I am off to work...
 
quick question, in the manual I must have misread something, it says that I have to cut the red wire loop for a 6 cylinder, is this correct? I need to goto work in 10 minutes and a quick reply would be great. Tommy
 
well I read it a few more times to make sure and I cut it at work, it made it so that the 5k pill activates and the 3k much earlier than before so that solved my problem. Tommy
