So once he passes me he slows back down and then drops it and taps the throttle. So I drop it in 3rd and we both go for it. We were dead even until I shifted into 4th and then he starts to pull me (about a car length) until I get up to about 5000rpms and then I stay with him until we both had to let off due to traffic ahead.

That's the first time I've ever been pulled on the freeway and it sucked! It now has me thinking what if it had been a ZR1. He would have left me in his dust. I don't want to be beat by a factory stock car. I'm now thinking that I need to start building a 331, port my AFR165's, replace the stock 3.33 pulley for more boost and then tune it for the methanol injection that I installed but never had it tuned for.

I got a close look at a ZR1 Saturday. IT's funny, it idles real quiet then hit the gas and all Hell breaks loose. I think you will need more than a 331.
