    I'd really hope that you'd realize that was a smart*** reply to Jerry's 600 or 700 hp comment lol. I'm hoping for 450ish, then a 100 shot of nitrous.

    Come on Lloyd. Go with the 800 hp so Bill won’t have to de tune to run with you. One of these years I’ll get mine done hopefully and be able to take on the loser.

    Yes, I knew it was ''bench racing''!
    When I was in school, every smogger 350 with headers and intake was said to make 500 HP! Lol

    Yeah, but Lloyd's nitrous system goes to 11.
     
  20. No Problem Denny,

    I am laughing right along with everyone else!

    Funny that Nitrous came up, because for a minute or two I thought MAYBE I would put a truly hidden system in like the one I helped put together on somebody else's car some years back, but no...If my self control wavers, I have other options laying around the shop gathering dust:p

    God Bless
    Bill

    It's gonna look good with the polished aluminum on it. Black pulleys, and redo the white headers
