Tony you are correct, it is a stepe curve. I have a few things going for me. First is this forum and the info and people contained therein. Secondly, I bought a cheap car that I am only a little afraid to screw up. Number three (and perhaps the most important), I am on a personal rennisance of sorts and have a burning desire for knowledge. . .right now. And lastly. . I am now reemployed (Starting the monday after my purchase) and although this will take some time away from my hobbies. . .it does wonders on the spirits which goes quite a long way!!

As for your quoted posting . . I am aware of what it should do and kinda have an idea of what may be wrong. I counted 30 seconds to 50. . .which by everyones estimations is pretty slow for this car. I never expected to break the sound barrier. . .but I do live in the sount and many yahoo's like to ride up on me and have a lil road rage fit. . .so out of courtisy I am trying to do all I can!! I plan on running WVO or B100 in the long run (probably WVO first, for obvious reasons), which although shouldnt affect this . . .it wont help it either. I have a ton of blowby and suspect that my engine is worn. Should a worn engine produce a slower acceleration. That may seem to be a stupid question. . .but I know there are no stupid questipons. My logic just tells me "Naturally it will you jack@ss"!!

Any how you can feel free to answer the question or not as I will find on my own anyway!!

Thank you all again. . . at the very least it is nice to have a supportive group that doesnt think you are nuts when you tell them what you are going to be doing!
