Any plans for an engine? Just curious as the stock blower can get you close to the "safe" limit on the stock bottom end. We've done a 3.6 kb, with e85 and all the necessary bolt ons. It was extremelyyyy limited by the safety thing. Could make 1000whp easy with that blower and stock heads/cams with a good rotating assembly.

... just 750-800 - that'll work just fine, lol - from what I hear that should be fine on the stock motor... unless I am one of the unlucky ones.

Nothing crazy.. probably just keep the 2.8KB I have (didn't want to mess with moving anything to fit it, or a new hood)... and that's about it. I don't need 1,000 hp ... just 750-800 - that'll work just fine, lol - from what I hear that should be fine on the stock motor... unless I am one of the unlucky ones.

CT... that's exactly what I wanted to avoid. Unless I do cams/LT's I hear the 3.6 nets you nearly 40rwhp.. I got the blower on sale from KB for 4k in lieu of the normal 6999, so it's a huge win imho; wasn't worth all the extra money to me. Just hoping the clutch/rear axle holds up well enough. I have the TP so I have the torsen diff., but who knows... lol - Track next Thursday to run a baseline before any of these items, so i'll have a brand new post to complain about 2.4 60";s because I suck at launching street tire cars, nonetheless oen with this much stock power!

I'll have the new MGW style when it comes out next month - I hate waiting for it. The KB should be here in the next week, install the week after with my O/R Hpipe. My guy said he worked on a 900+rwhp Shelby that road races all the time and his clutch/axle has held up, so im hopin!
I would love to break into the mid 11's; I know the car can... but I spin into 3rd gear on the street with the stock tires... so, who knows... maybe ill just go 75% into first gear. BMP in Bradenton, Fl normally has some awesome track prep., but I guess ill find out Thursday lol
Thoughts?
