it went 11.0 @ 124 making less power than it does now. i never got the new combination dialed in right to make new passes. working on that now. im' guessing its got a 10.8 or 10.7 in it. getting bap put on, new restalled converter and need new 17 in radials and another retune and that should be it.

i'm ordering that 2.65 pulley !

You Have A Machine Shop Nearby That Can Fab That Up And Duplicate It Perfectly?

You Have My Attention!

Then I Would Need The Tensior Assy And Blower Right Or Would That Come With It If I Just Buy The Head Unit Alone..

well rmcr said it would poke out of the SS hood but with the ws6 cause of the snorkels it would work but underneath you will have to trim it out.

I'll be getting a hold of inspector 12

Actually, it's http://www.rmcrperformance.com/

I bought the T-Trim head unit head unit and brackets from Coopdog a couple of months ago. RMCR hooked me up with the rest of the parts I needed to complete the kit.

Got Me Som, what's the scoop on the YSi? They weren't sure the T-trim will fit under the SS hood. It mounts in the same location, right?

The YSi sits up a fair amount higher than the T-trim. I had to cut the hood where the outlet is for the blower (the low point between the two humps on a WS6 hood). The unit itself sits up into the drivers side hump. I also had RMCR make me a 4" intake tube and they fabbed up a custom aluminum airlid. Its pretty cool but I'll really have to gut the hood to clear the intake tube.
