Well, it was on the second race (unless I got confused). I'm guessing traction may have been an issue since I've seen a vid of one smoking the tires from a 50 roll.

I just figured out what sounds badder than one blower. TWO at once! Man, I love that noise.

If only a Magnacharger fit under my hood...

Ported Eatons do pretty well...especially on nitrous. A properly setup KB will dominate ported Eaton however. Nitrous and a KB =

Good vid. I thought that the KB would destroy it from a roll. I guess I don't know much about the eaton's capabilitys. Good runs. The spot they were at seem to be pretty sweet especially for the camara man

Don't judge KB Cobras so quickly. You never know what the deal is with one particular car. As a whole, KB's (and Whipples) are top dog.

That's what I always thought but I hear so many stories about the ported eaton blowers. Are the stock blowers ported making that much power? I know a KB that is tuned right can be a SOB

This is coming from a guy with a nitrous'd ported Eaton and the KB. Not all at the same time of course, but you get my drift.

By the way, nice runs Turkey
