no i still have a 3.8l. with a .020 over bore. I dont think that i will go with a 4.2. The geometry on the 3.8 is so much better. Nobody has really tested the strength of the 3.8 crank so i guess ill have to be the first on to brake one! lol jk. I have a few more tricks up my sleeves that im gonna apply in the next year and try like hell to hit 9s |

so your gonna spin the p1 to 18psi? excuse my ignorance but isnt that a bit much for the small p1? I see you have the 3 core, but wont it be over spinning and creating more heat? Y not just go w a d1? less boost making more power.
Anyway i cant see what she lays down for you |

Ouch, good eye on the 18psi. Im not gonna take it that high, no. The highest Ima go with the P1 is 15 pounds. I am, however, looking for a D1 to trade or swap before the build is complete. Yea, 18 psi on a P1 isnt going to do a single thing for me. |

so what is the advantage of switching to the winstar manifold as opposed to porting the stock manifold? |

Bought some Steeda LCAs earlier today. That pretty much does the rear for now.
