This is why I don't think cutting the fitting had anything to do with my problems. If something happened when they cut the PCV fitting it would have driven normally the first day, before the fitting was shortened, but it didn't. That shows me that dynoing the new blower prob caused the damage.
When we first started the truck after the blower was installed and pulled it out of the garage. Which was 20-30 seconds at the most, the blower was as hot as the Eaton after being driven 30 minutes. I asked Chris about that, he said he really couldn't comment, because he didn't feel it. Also since my truck had 15 miles on it when I picked it up I had nothing to compare it to. I thought maybee it was normal for a new blower especially the new 5th generation caoting on first start up.
Also Sal didn't your blower have 4th generation rotor pacs?? If so my blower is not the same as yours.
i'll tell you what jim,
bring one of your customers trucks to the track and make a run on a normal program for a 6lber with some 26" slicks on the truck
you can then reburn the chip for 8 degrees of timing and we'll throw some 30" slicks on the truck and see what it runs

Sal,
You still didn't answer my question. Does the Works blower add 100 HP with 4 extra pounds of boost over the stock blower? You stated you went up an extra 100 HP of nitrous to compensate for the stock blower and you still ran the same times with the stock blower versus the Works blower and faster MPH with the stock blower.

Well, I couldn't resist........but my customer in Montana is running the Works 112 kit with a 4# lower and he has had ZERO problems thus far. This kit was the #2 pre-production kit that Works Power released, it has performed flawlessly since day one.
Since I am in contact with Works Power on a daily basis, I can attest to the fact that Sal was waiting on his inlet casting to get modified for 140 applications. I've tuned (2) trucks with 140 kits, with the man from Works Power by my side, and I know for a fact that Sal was pushing Works real hard to get his inlet casting back before the NMRA event. Unfortunately it didn't make it in time, but when it does show up, you can be sure he'll be running harder than ever.

Jim, your question still doesn't make any sense.
I ran 10.78 at 127 with a 1.51 60ft, with the Works112 at 18psi and 150 shot of nitrous.
I ran a similar time to that at 130mph with the stock Eaton at 14 psi and a 250 shot of nitrous. That was with a 1.63 60ft. Obviously the truck is making more power from the added spray. the poor 60fts are what kept me from bettering the 10.78 more than I did. Of course you know this, you'd just rather twist it into something that makes me look bad instead of telling the truth.
I don't want this thread locked, because you make yourself look worse every time you post. I'm enjoying it.

had he had more time with the suspension and taken 300 lbs out to match your weight, we know how that would have turned out
the only thing holding sal back is the suspension settings, but i'm sure he'll work that out,
i know sals a big boy and can take care of himself, it just irritates me to see you twist things and lie

166 blower info...............
<<"Hello All,
For those who are interested, as F-150 Online's JDM Engineering parts distributor we had a candid discussion with Jim D'Amore about the actual status & details of the infamous 166 bolt-on supercharger...........at this point JDM is now actually obligated to take these superchargers.........................here's the current timeframe projection: this shipment will be on it's way from overseas very soon, and they expect delivery in about 6 weeks or so, roughly, for the actual transport time over the water and getting cleared thru customs, etc., barring any unforeseen difficulties. So it looks like about 6 weeks, roughly, to actually see the batch of hundreds of 166 superchargers arrive Our bests to all..............">>
Doesnt the above really say it all?

On my stock blower I ran a 12,12 @113.97 on quick time pro's with a 60 ft time of 1.87
with the Magnuson blower
I did a 11.92@114.01 on Hoosier 28x10-16 with a 60 ft time of 1.64
Thats over a 2 tenth better 60 foot time because of the tires, but only 1 tenth better time with the new blower.
So take a look at these times and figure out what got me into the 11's
That's not really a fair comparison Don, unless you have the temp, BP and RH from both days. Also, you DID pick up MPH, and if you didn't have more power on tap for the second run, you'd have a lower MPH with the better 60fts. So it does show a power increase, but again, it's really hard to compare without all the data.
Don,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it something like WELL over 100 degrees when you ran that 11.94, and around 70 degrees when you ran the 12.12?
That looks like an awesome improvement to me...

Don that is a ridiculous comment to make without including information about tuning etc The 112 has a completely differnet power band than your stock blower. Some customers are just not worth having. Ill send you the $500 Magnasun wants to repair your altered blower if you promise to buy a Ken Bell, and not use an Magnuson or a Whipple.
