Found out at the end of the season that a Mirage 23+ was working the best for me. Right around 62mph at 4600rpms. I'm thinking of adding "something" next year to get that up a little. Maybe some IMCO manifolds, or a nose cone or ??? Anybody else find a performance gain without the big $$$?

so am I correct that if my tach is right lowering my pitch from 24 to 23 would raise my RPM?

What is a nose cone and what does it do?
