[QUOTE=2SSARME;16438201]I'd run meth on top of pump just for safety sake.

You're pushing a **** ton of boost through high compression.

Guy with a foxbody here had a fully built dart block for boost. Was boosting around 22ish also. Made over 1000rwhp. Ran it on pump gas for a bit and literally blew the "indestructible" dart in a million pieces. He then bought another dart block, and now is running even more boost on pump gas but with meth and hasn't had a problem since.[/QUOTt

It's never a guarantee motors wil hold up when building them for high hp.
But chances are I will end up running meth it works really well, but iv also heard bad things a out it too like something failing. And that it doesn't distribute it evenly to all cylinders but RhYs just what iv heard.

On the plus side running e85 helps cool things down too cuz of the cooling characteristics it has and its rated at like 105-110 octane.

Well. There are failsafes for pump failure.

Alky control has a progressive system to distribute it evenly to all cylinders.
Contact Julio over at Alky control.
Snow is good to but it's an entry level kit and is notorious for pump failures.

Couldn't tell you. I use stage 2 snow.
I'd contact Julio at alky control. He will talk your ears out with good info.

I think you'll lose the quarter with him being auto, and you having those steep gears with all that power. The roll you should win but again you'll have a lot of shifts to make with that steep gear, one miss and he'll have you.

Well the cars pretty much done. I'm picking up the mustang sometime this week so we should be racing soon. And a couple more cars are getting in on this, 04 turbo cobra lays down somewhere around 880 rwhp, and a hellion hellraiser cobra. And a few other cars so should have some good videos soon
