Going to do a Wipple build, looking for some feedback

Ill have pic's up later, but just picked up the truck, and keep in mind it is ~109 degree's here today.. and sitting on the dyno to tune this thing I had ~160 degree IAT's, so loosing some HP there..
Seeing about 470 RWT and about 430 RWHP, so.. figure 20% drive train loss in this thing with the big wheels and everything.. about 590 Crank Torque and 540 crank HP, not too bad with the heat this high.. so off of my start that is about 120 HP and 130 tq, and once it cools down I will be taking it back in to have another pull and see what it is when it isn't so hot.

Thats really good! I didnt see it but how much boost?
Dont suppose you want to try out a manifold spacer to raise the intercooler off the bottom of the lower manifold do you? I have one for sale in the classifieds but feel free to make me an offer on it.

That spacer looks sick as hell.. what exactly would it give me? would it lower my overall boost?..
And like I posted above, I was only seeing about 7psi with the heat ( 110 degree day and 160ish IAT.)

It will lower your boost a little bit, which is a good thing on a blower, by making the manifold more efficient. Its also perfect if you want to install meth or nitrous nozzles under the blower.
