you do! It's the stealth, secret combo thing 
lol, yeah... all us ACE PERFORMANCE guys like to keep real quiet about engine specs, tuning methods, and speed secrets...... but it's simply to keep a competitive edge.
As a Team.... we've got something like 24 standing records at Maxton that we'd like to protect.
Hell, I'm going for a few records myself in 08 at Maxton.

Lets all just have a big glass of christmas cheer and get back to talking data loggers 
Karl, since you log oil pressure, what would a normal(good) drag pass of yours look like, and how much of a pressure drop is considered bad(even if the light doesnt flicker)?
thx

KZ, you are correct-o, apologies to Phantom; he does have the fastest 1287 i know about and he SHOULD BE VERY PROUD!
I have logs of oil pressure at the 1/4 mile with the Coby Pan which show a dramatic drop in pressure when launching. I'll try & post em next week when i get back in the office.
IMO It's not so much about a "drop in oil pressure" but at what rpm that drop occurs. Going down to 10-15psi at 3000rpm is one thing, at 8000+ it is another. This is why the drop that can happen at the big end when you come off the throttle and brake worried me.
10-11000 rpm and see the oil light flicker... YIKES.
I had 2 motors fail right after the finish line. Were they already hurt? Probably. But was it a coincidence that they failed there? This was with stock oil pan and i had previously noticed many times the oil light flickering on decel.
