I think it was a little cheaper as well. Got the bushings in within 3 days.

Anyway good luck with the install. You better post a vid of that motor as soon as you fire it up
Trey, thank you for the link! Talked to Engergy suspensions to see if they had the bushings in stock, they dont sell retail. Double checked your link n noticed its ESparts.com. Emailed them today n they have one set of c arm bushings left(Red). See who gets them to me first, Summit with their Aug29 possible ship date (none in stock), buddy thats waiting on a set or these guys.

Fingers crossed.

Washer tank, whats that?
Havent had windshield washer tank, or wiper motor/linkage in the truck since 01. Shes fair weather only. Even back then (14 flat ets) got stuck the odd time on slight incline at a traffic light cause it started to rain waiting for light to change. Almost hit couple cars beside me cause the back end kept walking about 3' sideways barely touching the gas
ah ok. Their whats holding me back from an e fan. I'm not as particular as you but enough that i don't want them ugly *** things zip tied in my bay. I'm sorry but thats just half assed to me. I would like matching tanks. Its hard to pick anything out though with no engine or anything to check for room and mounting options

Software ballpark estimates

If I see 8.5psi at shifts, this is potentially what it will make in rwhp and 1/4m ets @ 70F, 75%hum, 30" of baro & 700' asl. Think it will make fair bit more crank hp than listed, slightly more rwhp than listed but run slower ets (hi 10s).

0-60mph times should be around 2.5-2.75 seconds(on 12.5" slicks), stock it ran 0-60 in 7.65 seconds. The mild 360 w/7psi it ran 4.1 second 0-60.

May need a new license plate, ViprKilr has a nice ring to it methinks

Ahh, knew someone else asked too just didnt go back through the pages to quote you both

Expect to see about 500-505hp crank or 380-385rwhp on the mtr na. Will need to break in mtr/trans and debug everything before thinking about adding the Procharger. When it finally goes on, Ill be underdriving it to start so it will only see about 4psi give or take. Run that way for a while before going to the stock crank pulley and possibly smaller blower pulley.
