Sure, that's the reason! Actually I have no idea what happened. It was a host issue for sure.

I don't know what happened but I dropped out of a Board meeting 2 minutes before my presentation on Tuesday night. Internet networks etc.. are jammed and terrible right now, no biggie, par for the circumstances. And me I got restored in three minutes so they barely missed me. When and how long was site down?

That was the first time that I was unable to get onto the site.

So, I took the time to throw in a new set of Moroso medium advance springs in my HEI distributor with the GM 375 center and 139 outer weights and went to the beer store. This was a legitmate errand to run, in this time of covid and during the activeboard crash, and subsequently took the scenic route there.

I have been playing around with this HEI a bit and first I tried the Moroso weights and the medium spings and there was no differnece from the GM stock setup. So, after reading that there is no better replacement for GM weights than GM weights, I put the GM weights back in and tried the Moroso medium springs with that combo.

Hello.......The 396 woke up with that combo and was a completly different engine.
