Well we all know many races are won out of the hole especially in the 1/8th which is what I'll run. Do you think it will 60' with a stock converter? It cut a 1.99 stock @ 2300. I would think a blower would push it up a bit.

Making 400 to tire on 93 with 33's on 6 lbs tvs1900 stock everything else. Corn ran about 25hp more. I have lt1 pump if i want to turnit up as fuel system pretty close to maxed out on corn fuel. This setup has been on truck since new and now has 45k odo, super conservative timing as this is wifes and ride and the tow rig. Biggest issue is heat so recently got big 5 gal tank, bilge pump, and 2nd pass hx.

Just got off the phone with Brian...2.9 Whipple ordered and paid. Should have it in 10-14 days. Happiness again!

I do like the Whipple but I know I will give up a bit of low end torque. Hoping the 6 spd helps in that regard. It stalls at 2300 right now. Ideally the 1900 is probably a good choice but I'm thinking down the road maybe a 6.2 plus the bigger blower may be easier to resell later? Another question, since we all know satisfaction is temporary, at what level of boost is belt slip a problem with the 6 rib? 10lbs? 12lbs? I wish they offered an 8 rib upgrade as it comes. I would rather start out with what I need anyway.
