No idea on rwhp/rwtq, but the same shop built another convertible using only Stage II Crower cams and a Stage II P&P and he is running 10.2s in the quartermile. Plus I am doing some extra weight reduction and my suspension is more track oriented. So I'd hope to be running around 10.0s or maybe lower, but I'm dialing in at a 9.9 or a 10.0 depending on the event index.

I do know that I am going to need to buff up the rear end, but that will be taken care of soon as well.

The thing is everything is already paid for its just that we only have so much time in the shop to get it all done so it may get done quicker, but no later!

The supercharger ships in the morning!

[Jeramey@StrictlyPro.com]

Oh and the tuner will be disclosed when I get her up and running!

[Stang13]

You'll love the blower dude! I have been having issues with mine (tune) but that is gettting ironed out here pretty quick! Would like to do some blower cams myself in the future.......

Good luck dude, I envy you...

Sweet...

decent plan, at least stage one.

However, the tranny will crap out and so will the rear end well before you get into the 10's. Might want to think about welding the tq boxes and plan to dump another 1500 in fuel stuff.
Also, with out an 8rib setup at the least you will be really disappointed.

Come on man I cant give away everything thats being done to the car!!! Plus it would really just be to much to list. There is a guy on on Modular Fords his username is C Nile. He is a local guy and is running 10.6s with the same setup that is going into my car (few upgrades and improvements over his setup being done). Same year, and everything. Its even a convertible as well.

Fuel stuff is already being installed with the supercharger as well as an 8 rib setup.

Whats wrong with Stages II and III?

[CrewChiefLite]

Heh...CNile....same setup, you say?

Yep, why do you ask? Its the exact same setup as CNile except stage III heads and cams. He is using stage II.

I'm guessing you know who built CNile's car or is there something else there?

[86sleeper]

with your goals I would have went with a different charger.
You will be out of its efficiency range and will most likely have to over spin it to get what you want.

Ya but the deal I received on the supercharger was definitely worth it. Worst case scenario if I ever want to go faster than the setup Tom (CNile) has then I will sell the blower setup (even selling it used I'll make plenty of $$$ off it).

Basically one of my sponsors had a guy purchase the blower new from Vortech then decided last minute to go with a turbo, they knew what I was wanting to do and offered it to me at an extremely reduced price. Just have to put their window vinyls on the car, and mention their product everytime I say Grace. (Mystic Mountain Blueberry).

[y2kGT]

yea i know who built it! That is a bad car and yours will be pretty bad itself! If everything goes my way I will have to start one of these for mine!!

[Brickyard]

Frickin' awesome man. Sounds good.

To project Veronica...

[Jeramey@StrictlyPro.com]

At 5psi of boost the car put down 330rwhp (328), with 98* temperature and some wicked humidity. 12.0-12.5 straight across the board and a nasty powerband curve.

I'll be trying some new stuff over the next two weeks. Smaller pulley, x-pipe, and power pipe and we should see around 375rwhp.

[86sleeper]

is that the vortech tune?

Thats a conservative tune, the Vortech tune was REALLY rich...like 9.5:1.

We could get more out of the car and still keep a solid A/F ratio, but we were hit by a storm and had to call it quits early. (Lights kept going out). Car ran 297rwhp with the Vortech tune.

[86sleeper]

I would stay as close to the 11.8 mark as possible.
especially if it is a daily driver.
Other than that, 330whp is not that far off from where you should be with your lack of mods and the auto.
i'm assuming the aftercooler kit came with a 3.33 pulley?
