Whos blower bracket Mikey? It looks killer! Ive got a 434 nitrous motor we are doing calibrations on now.

Was your block pretty unfinished? We had a LOT of extras in machine work because so much was left unfinished...

It would have to be 8.8 Static. Thats a lot of dynamic CR

Nice motor and setup, but keeping the belt on is going to be your biggest problem.
On a dyno they hold, but under full load heading down the strip is another.
Are you going with the ECS 8-rib system or are you going with a custom belt setup like 10-rib or cogged?
If any Centri setup's gonna need it, this one is it!
