Not quite ready yet. I've decided to upgrade the tranny and tq converter. Both have to be built and shipped, so add a few more weeks until we're ready to pull the engine. At least the delay gives me some time to get all my mod parts together. Blower, injectors, headers, crank pulley, throttle body, MAF, fuel pumps, etc.

I think my Whipple days are over with. Going with a Eaton TVS. As far as the tuning, I've been talking to Justin Starkey of VMP and James Henson at Henson Performance.

Is there a reason you don't want to run a whipple? Do they have a durability issue or do you just want to try something else?

Twin Vortices Series

Has this been done before? It would seem there will be clearance issues with the windshield recess.
