So with the mis-fire, you lost about 5 MPH?....Hmmmm....

I had the same problem with my Powerplay and it ended up being 1 stupid connector going to the MSD box....chased it all summer. Wouldnt do it at idle, so trouble shooting was not easy. Pull all that crap off and put these on....

Happy first day of summer! I think this is the slowest start to a season I have ever seen. I will be out Friday but I have plans that I am told don't include boating for the rest of the weekend. But next week I gotta go somewhere.... Block,Montauk or Port Jeff. You boys better get your boats in the water let's go! I still have a few little items, but hopefully most will be done in a week or two. So who is in and ready to go???
