Mark, put the whipple back on and run it for a year or two, then change the set up.
I agree and hope to see her up and running soon! Keep us posted Mark!

If you decide to sell you whipple let me know I know someone local who might want it.

CK - I can tell the wheels are already turning in your head. I think this would be pretty sick and making in streetable would be even better.

From tons of reading about the big boys, and what they break and spend on their set ups I will be very happy with a low 11 high 10 sec car I can drive on the weekend.

Now if I won the lottery or got a huge raise I have a few crazy custom idea's I would want to try.

Although you FI guys are way out of my league, I absolutely love (a.k.a. drool) when I read these threads.

God, I LOVE this forum!

I think running an 11.36, with your mods, qualifies you. That is damn impressive. Is that the generation II blower you have, if so what size pulley?
