Yeah. Plus now that I have a stouter engine, I don't have to limit the nitrous to a 35 hp shot.

That 2.9 is a much better blower than mine. I have a Roushcharger. It was maxed, making around 8.5psi on the original engine.

Stock cams and keeping the blower for now. I didn't want to put anymore money into this car until I finish my 68.
