I hear that after about 500rwhp or so (don't quote me) that it is better to do SD because the MAF won't handle all of the air...Is this able to tune in SD?? I'm reading up on it but since you run it everyday and doing it very well I might add I would rather have an answer from a satisfied customer...Thanks Kevin

Richie, the water pump doesnt look that bad in person lol, its 8 years old so cut it some slack
Its a new short block with better connecting rods and the compression is about .5 less, shiny new LS6 block aslo. Also have as-cast Dart 225s on it. I was paranoid with the stock connecting rods in the other motor and the 98 heads it had before were ported back in 2000 plus had stock valves. Should pick up a little but with this stronger rods I'll be able to up the boost some. Not looking to run much faster then last year, just hoping to have another trouble free year. Next fall I'll make it fast, collecting parts now

I know. I was messin with ya/
Sounds good. Should pick up a good amount of power over the old combo. You can even upgrade to the carb-style if you wanted just a little more out of it.
I wish I knew what the approx. gain's are for the Carb style over say and LS6 for a forced induction set-up.
