A Procharger would be cheaper on the stock bottom end. Most big strokers are going to start in the $10K arena for just the long block, while the Procharger kit will come pretty well complete.

But making that kinda of power NA is a awesome thing my friend. And with the procharger you will probably end getting forged internals anyways.

Sorry for the late follow up.

I got the car to the track last weekend, and found the weak link happen to be the tranny. Any rpm above 6000 and the tranny wouldn`t shift into third at all, untill rpm dropped 500 or so.

I was still able to muster a 12.177 at 121mph on Mickey drag radials granny shifting. My 60 foot was 1.89 on that run. The track elevation was about 2300feet.
The car has alot left in it. Once I get a set of slicks and the tranny rebuilt, i should be in the 1.5-1.6s 60 foot area. My goal for the car is to be running around the low 11s at 125.

I will get some idle vids up soon.

Well it was a little late in comming, but I finally go a video.

My best run was a 12.177 at 121 mph with a 1.90 60 on 17 " Mickey Drag radials, on the motor. This run was in Medicine Hat Alberta at a elevation 2300 feet.

The video is of my 12.532 at 116 mph with a 1.879 60` in Calgary Alberta at correted elevation 4000 feet, the night I ran the car.



I guess first few times out you allways find the weak spots. Mine was the traction and 3rd gear

I couldn`t hit third. I had to granny shift all gears.
Bogarts SS`s and 27 X 10.5 X 15" Hoosier QTP are on order.

I also need to get the Tranny sent away for a rebuild. I was thinking about a 6 speeds Inc stage 4+ rebuild.
