Overfiring, and Tire diameter calc

[jmbrodsky@domain.elided]

     About the over firing, does it run ok before the problem starts?  
     From the get-go it sounded to me like the wires were misplaced.  
     Double check those, and, remember that the #1 is the front on the 
     drivers' side.  Also time the engine on #8, Not #1.  If you got 
     these already, please disregard.

     About the Tire diameter.  My guess is that 2.5% is the compression 
     standard for a radial laced steel belt tire?  The only tires that 
     actually INCREASE in diameter, are those on Drag cars that get 
     those babies really spinning.  If you want the math, email me 
     privately.  The tire really has to be rotating quickly to get the 
     dia. to increase, AND raise the truck.
