We were running the 71 Challenger at the track today. It's just a 1/8 mile. It has a 408 stroker from BluePrint Engines. On The first pass, it does great. It was not a hot day. Maybe 80 degrees at the most. Coming around for the second pass we had to wait in line between 5 to 10 minutes. We turned off the engine whenever we could. It would heat up but not terrible. The second pass is way down on power. Shifting to second gear the engine bogs terribly, hardly any power even feathering the throttle. After letting the car cool down for 45 minutes it's back to good power then the second pass is crappy. What's going on?
