I have been running them for a couple of seasons now and they hook up well, at the track I run them at 16psi. They work best with a little heat in them. Good luck with them.

Truck is coming along....I put a new rad. cap on it...trying to see what the problem is. I don't know yet if that its helping. I want to put a new cam in it...bigger than the 218/224 I have and convert it to roller. If I get the money up...I want to get a set of the new 195cc AFRs.
