I understand the downfalls of shifting and all that, but i really could care less at the moment. If i was that concerned with running X ET or doing this or that, I would have gone with a th210 and a 106 to begin with.
****'s weak Dom. I bet you don't hit 800 whp on 20 psi.
In all seriousness though I can't wait for the car to be done. I will be in the shop the day that thing rolls off the dyno and onto the streets.

Its already been done before with the exact heads/cam/intake on the combo i spoke of, I didnt just make that number up. Part of the reason I bought them off Fereday was that they were already proven to flow well enough to make the type of power I want. Took the guess work out of finding a package that i would be happy with.

EDIT: You can see what the combo previously helped make here: http://www.gmhightechperformance.com...aro/index.html
And my mistake, it been awhile since I bought the stuff. They only flowed 1200whp through a glide.

GMPP carb style, heads port matched to the intake. As far as what they flow I dont remember exactly. If you really want to know Im sure you can PM Worm Boy and he could tell you. Throttle Body is 90mm.

Ive got a few vipers and supras to slap in the mean time, as it will remain a true street car.
I look forward to running you once we both get our cars back. Right now I'd say the race is to see who's running first! What do you think that thing will weigh? I'm in left field on non mopar stuff.

Not all vipers are created equal

As far as the weight, im not 100% sure. A few of the recent RPM built cars weigh in at 2800lbs without driver (nitrous cars though), but the minutub dropped a bit of weight over those cars, but the turbo kit will weigh more than a nitrous bottle/kit obviously. So my best guess would be anywhere from 2900-3000lbs?

We can. otherwhitemeat on here has been running a 101mm setup on his 390ci LT1, recently switched to a 94mm i believe for better spool time. No replacement for displacement. Im sure someone with more technical knowledge can answer that better though.

Yeah that's why it will be a fun race. I have no clue where my car will end up power wise. I compromised some things for streetability. The car will have full air, full interior, CD/speakers and all that fun stuff. It's not a stripped down car. I want my 65 year old dad to jump into the car and drive it as his lunch car. Then me take it to my track and beat the crap out of it.
I did this with a viper truck I had. I came in at 5760lbs in that beast. I drove the **** out of it. Sadly, when a twin screw SC'er on a fully built motor with striker heads hooks up, you start breaking ****. First passes I twisted the block so bad the mains were stuck. Then it went to hell from there. Once I got it going again, eventually threw a rod out the side. However, going 10.90's at 127 in something almost 6k/lbs, all while driving it to darlington, sc (3.5h for me) was kickass. I don't baby my stuff. Of course, I kinda wish I would have. My truck has been down for almost a year! New motor goes in around 60 days from now. Viper has to get done first.

It's a fully done car. I don't think the issue will be how much power vs how much power we can actually get to hit the dyno. I'm not sure how hard I'm going to push it (meaning over 30lbs). We'll be over 1k at the rear wheels. Don't want to say much more till I get my runs over. I have 3-4 runs semi locked in, just waiting for them to get punkout money done.
