Welcome home and thanks for your service

 

MMR baby! Nice! Gonna be a whistler!

 

Thanks for your service. Glad you made it home safe and in time for the holidays.

 

thanks everyone...got a question, i have a 125shot of nitrous on my car right now....i have the chance to sell my sc kit to a buddy for what i paid for it, do y'all think i should just sell the s/c and put that money into suspension and build my rear end and up my nitrous to a 150 shot or just keep the s/c?

 

You have blower cams so honestly you are not getting what you would out of the nitrous. Nitrous cams work a lot like all motor cams, lots of overlap etc. Whereas blower cams are quicker to close the exhaust valve so as not to blow boost out the exhaust. I would keep the s/c.

 

Honestly keep the blower man, you will like that more then nitrous once you start filling bottles, so of the nitrous die hard on the forum are switching to blowers and there is a reason for it.

Thank you for your service and Im glad to hear you made it back to your family safe

 

Welcome back! Thank you for your service!

Did you buy the short block from MMR? How were they in customer service (if you called) and shipping? Was it packaged well?

 

well i have made up my mind and I'm gonna keep it. and MMR was good to deal with. i talked to them on the phone a few times and they were real helpful. took longer than i expected to receive my short block but it was not a big deal
