Yes I plan on keeping my same NOS dry stealth setup but Id swap the solenoids for a 200-250 flowing one.

But if your spending 200 on the head gasket get some cosmic. Expecially if you plan on spraying it

Looks Like at Real STELLAR SOLID set up! Just make sure you use ARP Rod Bolts to complete the bottom end as i didn't see them on the list but probably overlooked it. Should be good for close to 430rwhp!

Good luck,

AS for split I would go with anything with atleast 6* more on the exhust and no less than a 114LSA. Nice setup though.

My guess is that without the bottle, it should run in the low 430RWHP range, which is fairly stout. Sounds like a interesting peice, keep us updated. Would love to see some dyno sheets once it is all together. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
