I want teh big Whipple but it is going to cost about 2K more to do that and make less hp than if I went to a big turbo. Next is going to even bigger heads maybe some ET 250cc heads and solid roller cam thats even bigger and a 3800 or so stall if my new job works out right. Those new mods will be after the 80e swap thinkin maybe an FLT level 4. After I have fun NA and nitrous Ill swap the cam out for an FI friendly cam then throw a nice fat turbo on there and use the nitrous to spool it I would really like the fastest ec 99+ truck title. I atleast want the fastest N/A ec title. So far 2bseen is in the lead with a 12.49 I think with weight reduction and the bigger stall and bigger cam I think I can beat that but he has a new setup in the works too so who knows Im going to do whatever it takes I want that title bad

Hey thanks TDrumm I think Im going to get an SSR intake spray barred for my setup. Im going to go over to Allen Nelsons place and dyno it with the stocker then do the swap and then dyno it with the SSR intake to see if it is worth doing I really like the idea of more airflow even though I was skeptical at first. I just hope it stays together and no more problems if it has to come back out I dont know what I will do maybe just rebuild the 5.3 and put some goodies back in it and mess with the big cube motor later on.

Yeah my dad just informed me he is going to buy me a set of cal-tracs for my truck for a late birthday present so Im getting those next week and lowering the truck then too hopefully so it will be nice and close to the earth. Then the new nitrous kit will be here the following week then I need to order my other 3 inch ecutout and get HPT
Gotta get my apt. stuff lined out first and get the new job going before I can order the cutout and HPT though the other stuff is already paid for

Can't wait to see what it runs in the 1/4 after the tune and spray.
