    I'm telling you, you sent me your MAF with the CAI!

    I guess I'll just go ahead and ship it to you...unless you want me to sell it on ebay.
    Oops! Guess you're right. I checked through my box of pieces parts and DOAH! Thanks Ross!

    I had to sit down with the Wife and explain all the perks and drawbacks to each option. Thanks to a trip to HI in the the next coming month, I will be able to up my budget a little. Oh the price of power....

    I want the pro-charger the same reason Tom wants one. Before I heard of the pro-charger, I wanted turbo's over the maggie. I don't want to fight to keep traction off the line and I like the feel of the car pulling harder and harder.

    I voted stroker motor. Nothing like big cubes making big torque. And the good news is that when you get the stroker motor put in, if it isn't enough power, you can STILL put a blower on it.

    Much as I think I would love to go the stroker option, I think I'm leaning more and more towards a supercharger and having the heads done. It's my understanding that the bottom end is the weak link in our motors, and that a new short block is needed for the stroker. Just the short block alone is in the $5400.00 range..... This last couple hundred horses are gonna be expensive no matter how I shake it.

    with 11.3AFR and low fuel pressure on the high end. I'm planning an
    upgrade to the fuel pump and will add a meth kit should be able to lean it out some and raise rpms to 6500. Will also switch out the valve springs too.
    This should get near 485-500 rwhp on a Dynojet which reads higher than a Mustang dyno. With slicks should be solid 11.9s. The Bowler converter
    is really a perfect match to the Procharger.........nice combo.

    I voted Maggie simply for looks. There is nothing like popping the hood and seeing a blower sitting on an engine. All options make gobs of power, but the Maggie just looks killer.

    And I love how there are 0 votes for "Leave it alone you're to fast as it is!" LOL

    I think I'm going to go with the Maggie and the heads.....Unless I get some really decent numbers back on the Stroker option. I'm also having some paint work done....It'll look something like this, but with the crystal flake of the IOM in the black also.
