But it's ok, you don't have to agree with me. I know what it takes to go fast and have lots of friends with FAST cars so my opinions may differ from others. We're still friends wether we agree or not. :p

Turbo fan or not you're gonna like my new setup. Lets just say it's not an STS combo.

Probibly wish you had bought a Radix now huh.

My Z71 in 2wd would need more done to the suspension than the S10 to hook properly with its stiff 1/2 ton rear suspension.
I think an intercooled Whipple would be very cool, and I would bet it would put down much better numbers than an intercooled Radix- but at a much higher cost.

Only problem there is that in 2wd I would mash it at 30mph and the truck would just kick sideways and HAZE the tires till I lifted. LOL The GT67 was much better for ET/MPH but it couldn't have them at 30mph like the GT35 could.

I'm not good at reading compressor maps yet but if you can find a map for a GT37 then we can compare because I know where to find the charts for the 6.0L.

I think the GT37 is close to a GT67 isn't it?
