umm, you have a stroker motor, and a blower, but you want to get rid of the blower, and get a bottle?

unless you need the $$, have a blown stroker, best of both worlds.

NEXT weekend...I'm going to the nascar race tomorrow. Go JR #8!!!!!
I have the software already and am just awaiting the cable. Looks like I have some learning to do. First thing I'm gonna do is drop some timing and see if it shows up where I think its supposed to.
