Default I must be crazy changing my combo again

SOOOOOOO Ive made the decision today no blower motor any more and im just gonna go have fun until I have the money coming in to go outlaw. Visited my engine builder today and made the decision going 15:1 compression with ultra lite pistons like they run in cup motors and then I will spray it with a 100-200 shot jesus juice. I am hoping to make around 850-900 on motor alone on 112octane then when I go to nitrous i will run VP import and hope to make 1000 hp.

It's hard to believe you can keep that car together making that kind of power .She's going to be a Rocket ship ....I can't wait to see the video clip when this is finished and built . Always nice to shoot for the moon pal congrats!

I was told directly by fast and donnie walsh that id be much better off using a carb while going n/a/ nitrous when i go to a blower though hands down efi. its just not in the budget to complete the build right now and i want to be able to race this year, i should have enough next year to go to a blower.

im just going off what they tell me, when the guy selling me the fast tells me im better off to run a carb its hard not to believe him especially when hed be making some big cash off me. He said with the system i have it would be hard to tune it to run good on 1 tune where as a carb i can run it great n/a and then with a wet shot it will have the right fuel and air mix where as with the efi it can only run on 1 tune at a time so id have have it set up for nitrous when i run n/a so it will be fat.

I agree with you adder being that efi can be tuned for anything but i dont know how well it will work with this fast classic box i have
