    mach 1 times?

    This kid is telling me that a mach with minor bolt ons, as in stock tb to oil pan, no motor work, you can run 11.3s and 11.4s with no weight reduction. That seems completely incorrect. anyone chime in? he says his friend ran an 11.47 @ 116. that seems a little off. anyone?

    current power in sig @ 10 psi with S trim. basic mods are TW heads, stock cam with 1.6s cobra intake, longtubes, etc etc With an F cam or tfs stg 1 cam and ported cobra lower and going from stock pulley to 3" pulley(about 12-14 psi), how much power do you think that'd net me? thanks.

    low power. why and improvements?

    402rwhp and 391rwtq with longtubes, o/r h pipe, TW heads, and cobra intake, S trim 10 psi, 5 speed. i'm going to have my lower ported this winter and maybe put a trickflow stg. 2 in it. will that get me 500rwhp with that boost? or will i need smaller pulley?

    15-16 psi w/ s trim too much?

    how much boost with 3" and 6.87 pullies on S trim?

    i'm just wondering how much air that thing would be moving with those pullies. i'm making 10psi with the stock ones right now. Would those pullies be too much stress for the shortblock? thanks.
