    It is so low because I like boost. :grin: I've run 22 psi on my Mustang and will be turning that up near 30 psi once I get a few other things done ... going for 1,000 hp from the small 4.6L stroker w/ boost. ;) Anyway, like Carlos said (below), they are building to the compression I wanted, and the car will never be without a blower.

    Techco Forever! :flowers:

    I got some pics from Techco of my block being honed ... :D

    I'll probably race it some, but it's not going to be a weekly racer as my budget won't fund the full out drag car or wear and tear on it.

    No picking on the stang ... LOL. When you have a tattoo of the car's name on your body, tearing the car up at the track is a horrid thought. ;)

    Not really an inside joke towards Chris (Legmaker) as he wasn't an instigator, but the last time a lady on the forum referred to her tattoo it started a 4 week long posting ordeal of reasoning, logic and then begging to get her take a pic of the tattoo that led to getting her to take a pic of other things as well, etc, etc.

    I can't believe the other guys don't remember! Am I the only one to have saved some brain cells in the 80's and 90's??

    Special thanks to Bill at Paramount for the new NAG1 transmission!! Lisa got a blueprinted high torque capacity NAG1 with modified valve body.

    We need to get the flanged swapped to the 3-bolt or get a different driveshaft, but otherwise it looks good. :) Thanks, Bill!!
