With heads and a cam you'd have a hard time making 8 psi with the P-1SC anyway.
You're more than likely need to upgrade to 60lb injectors as your injectors will probably me maxed out. Bob

LOL! okay so let me get this straight. im looking at the p1sc kit for mine.. so its a lot smarter to get a 8 rib pulley setup. but would it be smarter to just wait for the D1, instead i want 8 to 12 lbs being on heads and cam. I mean be honest worth the wait or is it achievable with p1 and not slipping belt and working the hell out of it!?? lol
