I need to get tuned somewhere not sure where. Ill have to research performance dyno. How far of a drive is it? Between kitchen remodeling and winter ski vacation i havent had much time to start whipple install. I finally got around to unhooking everything to pull the eaton. Only thing left is having friend tilt blower/lower to get intercooler manifold bolts off and helping me pull it.

just some food for thought, i hear through the rumor mill that E-85 has inconsistant octane, just wanted to let you know. i know a couple of people that went through a lot of headaches trying to get a stable tune with it. i'm not trying to be a downer, i just wanted to let you in on what i've heard.

i have some friends that have had issues as well, its such a pain to cycle fuel out of the tank if you switch between a 93 tune and an e85 one. i would love to do it, but i drive my car about 20k miles a year and e85 is few and far between, and 1/3rd the gas milage...no thanks. but rob, good luck to you sir and may the stock longblock/ IRS gods smile upon you!

Going to stick with E-85, won't be going back and forth... Once the car is completly done there will be a back-up motor for next year's project... :evil:

Looks good I would run the Sullivan the procharger intake up top is not very efficent. A centri's power curve is not as hard hitting as a blower or turbo therfore you should be okay with stock shafts just watch wheel hop lol..
