Yeah, have Jerry tune yours so he'll have a better idea of how to tune mine...

i have all the respect in the world for jerry but he wont be tuning my truck. Greg Banish (detroit speedworks) has combined efforts with livernois motorsports and i'm sure sal can vouch for his experience will be tuning it. if something should arise Mike Wesley is only a phone call away so is Sal for that matter. as of right now were not sure if we will be using autologic or the chipmaster revolution software.

Looks nice! Gotta get my BOV flange welded on and I think I'll be done except for getting it tuned.

omg that sounds awesome. Couple quick ?s. Where did you start that pull based on the time it took im thinking you locked it into 3rd at a low rpm? And dyno sheets? maybe? please?

I like the noise revving but the sound when it powers down it awesome.

i'll try to get the dyno sheet scanned. if i had a built block we would have definitly went for more power but i do want to race it this year.


it made 468 hp and 447 ft-lbs @ 5500 rpm's (ON A MUSTANG DYNE)which is were we stopped the pull. it is definitly a different power band. it made almost 15 psi with the 9 inch lower(6lber) and 4 inch upper. after 4800 rpms the eaton would start dropping off and this just keeped climbing. almost 70 horsepower more than the setup i had last year(15.5 psi). only 17 degrees of timing compared to the 22 degrees we were running last year. and best of all iat2 temps were around 89degrees with ice in the power cooler and maxed out at 120degrees when the ice was melted.

Only a 4 inch upper and only 5500 rpms? That is only spinning the blower about 43800 rpms @ 5500 motor rpm. Nice video though.
