Local (salt flat) data is available every IIRC 15min from 2 weather stations1 at the start and 1 ~ 1/2 down the big track, so ambant air density is available.

YouTube can be good . Gale Banks did a good
presentation on Manifold Air Density MAD and how that has affected how he chases power versus others .
I asked the channel if thay had access to the Hot Rod Calculator
There response

Ahh.. We don't have the calculator handy that you're referring to. We've requested a copy from HotRod.

Hopefully Banks has enough pull to get somebody to go digging in the archives and will share a sorce if/when successful.

MAD is one of my reasons why I am devloping a temperature controlled grill block referencing IC Nd engine coolent temperature.
Cheep simple servo automated grill block active aero deployment. (Link). With additional blockages on other components that will open independently based on that components individual need. EG transmission cooler. this truck has a technical service bulletin advising not to drive the truck in overdrive below - 5F, this causes the viscosity to get to high in the air to liquid transmission cooler(aka it freezes) causing a restriction in the cooling circuit end result is' a burned-up overheated transmission, failure mode too cold. So I make shure that is blocked in winter( doesn't get hot enough to run without it covered in overdrive for two to three months where I live).

Don't wanna repost this whole thing, BUT, paste your data into excel and it will do graphs easy peasy
