Paul,

Billy Nees gets his satifaction from turning an 18-second street slug into a 14-second race car, utilizing only class-legal methods. I think I must get the same kind of satisfaction out of seeing how much horsepower I can wring out of this (almost) stock, OEM shortblock (cam change, only) with a superchagrer and a 750 Holley, without damaging the engine.

I think I'm already walking a VERY thin line, now, and any more positive additiions to the B.M.E.P will likely push her over the edge....

Guess I'll work on the chassis for a while and try to take some weight off the front of the car.

I need this thing to hook up... Workin' on that.
