And then you can't say no to the Edelbrock engine covers for an additional $258. I know it's a small price for such a big purchase but it all adds up.

Any reviews on the Edelbrock?

The #1580 is the complete kit with covers. And whats $120 when your spending $5k???

Its that kind of thinking that makes people go broke. 120 dollars will always be $120.

What's a good supercharger that will give you 500+ hp at the wheel safely without having to forge the engine?

The whipple gen2 is your best shot @ that IMO. It won't quite make 500 at the wheels though.

There is no safe 500rwhp on stock internals and stock bottom end...

And why does Brenspeed want to charge an extra $300 for the Edelbrock coil covers when they come standard in the kit when purchased from anywhere else??

I believe they just sell the base tuner kit + the extrees. I'm unsure what part of Illinois you are in but Bob Kurgan Motorsports in Byron is the man. He has helped design the tune for Edelbrock for our cars. He has great pricing and he has forgot more then most know regarding Mustangs, dyno's and tunes.
