Gonna end up running 10 lbs with a meth injection to lower the cylinder temp and up the spark, planning on forging over the next year....for now 8 lbs. sorry for being misleading, its not on yet, trust me, I would of used the caps locks ALOT (lol) more in the post if it was. As soon as I can get away from work ( ehhh, steak n shake) I 'll install it , being sure topost alot of pics for you all, and hopefully some big numbers too. Will keep you all updated, it will probably be towards the end of the month (I don't have too much free time, with high school and working bout 55 hrs a week, but thats how i affford this) Plus Im not a big post-er on here, just live toread up all your guys'wisdom (and online abuse). especially floodzilla and nanaki, thanks for everything! (and floodzilla, i have thought about turbos,Im saving those for on downthe road, who doesn't want more power per pounds of boost?) Ill stay in touch guys!

Who doesn't like cheap power? Anyways, thanks for all the enthusiasm (thanks dictionary.com for correct spelling)and support. Floodzilla, there is no shame, I'mobessesed too (as my parents,girlfriend, and significant others would say). Been that way since I was eight and I don't see it changing anytime soon, unless hydrogencarsdo reign supreme, in which case I will start on building myself an Iron man suit.I would like to inquire which meth kits you two have experience with. Nanaki, i see pump failure as a great probability and that thought is one that would haunt me every time i start up the stang. Do you think AEM's kit would take this fear away using their "boost safe" system in which when it detects a problem it retards the timing/boost? I do want to risk running meth, i just want it to be as safe as possible. I was thinking alcoholinjectionsystems.com since they are located close to me in ohio. any advice/experience would be greatly appreciated, seeing as this concept, which was used way back in WWIIand almostdoubled the hp in planes, is very new to the modding industry.
