I need to try the same run with my latest mods to see how 2 into 1's, the Arlen Ness Big Sucker and Power Commander tuned for the intake and exhaust improve things.

Yeah, I just installed this stuff and haven't yet tried it out.
Okay, I'm back after taking a few runs on different roads with my new stage I mods. I didn't have any long straights, but had most of 3/8 of a mile between blind curves. I just barely got it to 110, but it sure felt like 130, dang, my feet wanted to blow off those extended forwards. Oh, yeah, those stirrups sure came in handy when I was stabbing for a place to put my wind blown size 11's. Should have worn something with stepped heels, not my tennis shoes, to give me something to push my insteps against on the pegs.
