    Anthony,

    That last run looks like a Sunday drive...a lot to be said for 400+ inches and a 88mm...

    Thanks guys! Brad you were right on the money with the boost level. Dan, it felt like a Sunday drive, a real fast one...you are correct, the 400+ inch motors make some steam, the nicest part about them is the amount of tq NA. You will witness it when you get yours going.

    The et is starting to come around and match the mph some. At 3500 we achieve 2.3 psi boost, I think if I stay on the 2 step a little longer we could build some more. I'm interested to see what mind of 60' numbers we can achieve with the launch at 3800.

    just shows you dont need the big solid 700" roller, let the turbo do the work, a well selected hyd. roller will get it done, less spring pressure, alot easier on valve train

    Brad, so far I am very happy with the switch back to hydraulic. I have zero valve train noise (I couldn't stand the constant clatter of the solid), car can idle for extended periods, and not to mention will go to 7400-7500 with ease. The head guy nailed the spring package to make it perform, and the roller lifters are very nice pieces.

    Also, my wife and I just welcomed our new son to the family at 11:48pm on April 24th!

    SO, I will not be attending MIR with the car BUT Dennis will be wheeling the car in true street.

    Congratulations Mike! Man, seemed like everyone I know is having a baby around this time. One of my good customers was a few doors down from us and they had their baby the same day as my wife and I!

    It is funny how this thread turned into a baby discussion!

    Not sure what my deal will be for Maryland, I don't have a stand in driver. Car is ready, not sure if I will be.
