Got the IAT's much more manageable with a couple nozzles mounted under the blower inside the intake manifold. The car made 422/460 at the tire on 9lbs. I am building another car and this time it will go turbo. I like the s/c, but it has been very limiting.
Sorry to hear about the car man. Is it that bad? Regardless of the limiting power of the blower, I give you props. It was a fun watching everything come together and work. Are you planning on selling the setup?

Turbos are a good way to go. I'm currently building my motor and it'll be fed by a pair of ebay GT45 turbos. Good luck with your new build and be sure to post up.

Did the rear end lock up at the drag strip?

Did you get anywhere with the Jaguar setup? I was thinking of a modifying an Ebay Chinese aluminum intake and adapting an XJR eaton and coolers for my 4.8.
