I had an 02 and got rid of it to get a fox. I wanted a stroker pushrod with a shot of juice, which is similar to what I'm running right now, but I've always wanted a blown 4.6 as well.

I plan on using it with my stroker I build too. I always thought it was cool, but the first time I sprayed my car was unreal. It was only a 75 shot but it kicked ***.

I agree! It allows you to race a wider variety of cars. For the money i'm glad i went with nitrous though.

My guess is about 375 at the crank so somewhere between 325-330whp. Not to bad in a car that weighs just about 3000 lbs, maybe even less. When I get to the track I'll get it on the scale and find out for sure.

I don't think tha vid was of me. As for a trip to the track, not yet. I had wrecked my 89 GT earlier this year and the 86 was a roller I picked up to swap my drivetrain into. I did the whole swap in my driveway by myself with basic hand tools so I spent a lot of time tweaking it. The one time I actually got to run it was before the N20 and with a borrowed set of Nitto DRs before I got my Mickey Thompsons. I cut a 1.9 60' and ran a 13.85 at 100 mph. I only got one pass in because I got to the track late and never got a chance to back it up. I've been really bus with work and talking to a recruiter and getting ready to leave for the Corps, so I haven't got a chance to get to the track with the N20. If the weather is good this week I'm gunna try to get to e-town to get some runs on the MT DRs and the spray.

I'm about 10 minutes out of NYC in Bergen county. Right now the only thing my car has going for it is the drivetrain. The bodyan interior are in great shape, but it defiantly needs a paint job. It's not terrible and from 20 feet actually looks good, but up close it's nothing to be proud of. I'm leaving for boot camp soon, so I'm gunna leave the car at my parents house until I'm permanently stationed somewhere, then just drive it to where ever I'm stationed. That's when I'll get it painted and start building my stroker. I was gunna go with a 331/347, but now I think I'm gunna go with a 351w based engine.
