MAF meter came today, got it installed and fired it off. Man that thing sounds good!
I will put some miles on it tomorrow and then off to the dyno for tuning.

Haven't pulled it hard yet. It is just a 6 psi pulley.
But man does it sound roudy. You might not want this cam for your daily driver.

Well here is the update.
The engine still seems to be tight and we don't have everything worked out.
A very heat soaked, and still a little rich engine only put down 370 RWHP, I hope there are more ponies to be had.
At the track, you could tell I have not run one since 1978. My reaction time was all over the place .250 to .500. On street tires and a 200 lb passenger, I ran 12.6 at 110 mph with tons of spinning. I think we should be able to get in the 11s.

I will post another update in about 2 or 3 weeks when hopefully we will have some more of the bugs worked out.

Also, for the fun of I ran my 03 Cobra Vert, with the stock F1 tires and a passenger, I ran 12.7 at 112 mph. I guess that wasn't too bad considering my 60' was 2.4 and I had to get out of it to stop spinning.

daaaaaamn. i told u that intake was goin to be holding u back. that blower mite be a bit small for u too. do u have a boost guage on there. i highly doubt your seeing a full 6lbs of boost. maybe 3lbs if your lucky then 4lbs. put a boost guage on there and a smaller pulley and see what happens
