I know NOTTA about blowers. but would seem to me a cam that was designed for a blower engine would be better than ur stock one?? One thing i would do before building alot of HP is get it to hook first.If ya dont hook now ,whats it gona do when ya do put the HP to it.Nice to hear ya staying with the gears tho,ull be better off once ya get the heads to flow or buy better ones bro.

ya they will help. a set of frame ties and air bags will be ur best improvment. then get a set of drag shocks.

that is if your already running slicks.Also remember to run more air in the right rear bag than the left.(more in passenger side)that will even the wieght to bothe rear wheels at launch.If i remember ryte put about 25psi in right and about 6 psi in left bag but dont quote me on that i would have to look through my notes to be sure.

Hmm, last time I checked I thought my car had 5 liters not 4.6... Not sure how the post was moved there but anyway, I'm installing a 10" 3000 stall this weekend and a 7" lower blower pulley for more boost. I've also got some 28X10.5 M/T Sportsman Pro tires coming. I plan to hit the track in the next few weeks so I'll give you an update on the ET and MPH changes. Thanks for all your help.
