I intend to build my other 440 with a blower in mind, but that will require money that I don't yet have.[:@]

I've even given the blower idea some serious thought, and it's becomeing more appealing all the time. Even a low pressure system 5-6 PSI would make a huge difference.

-2003 Hemi Ram QC 4x4: 16.0@88 (Slight tire spin, 2 passengers, with G-timer, slightly up hill)

-1997 VW Jetta VR6: 14.8@95 (intake, chip; tire spin through 1st, first time running it, with G-timer, slightly up hill)

I'm looking for mid to high 15's in the truck, and low to mid 14's with my Jett this summer. I now have lightened pulleys in my VR6 and summer will yield better times.

I'll get a chance to check out how accurate and good the G Tech Pro is since my dad got on this week. We will have lots of fun this spring testing all our cars and the '74 Barracuda with the Hemi will be getting tubbed and a set of SS springs and a new wider set of 15X10 Convo Pros with 325/50/15 BFG's on them. I want and need some 15X10's on the rear of my Roadrunner.

Do the SS springs still come with a kidney belt?

hey 71..if you have a Gtech pro...why not try it on the SRT4? you have run the srt4, so maybe you could get an idea of how accurate it is?
