No doubt instant torque will get that car moving "if" you can hook it up. That is the key. What I will say is this, the fastest 1/4 mile Vette`s run centrifical blowers, vortech, procharger ect.. ie.. they make power higher in the rpm band, maggie powered Vette`s never seem to be able to run the same times. You can check on the corvette forum for those numbers. Now inmho the Whipple and to a similar extent the KB give you the best of both worlds, torque much sooner than the centrificals, but the ability to breathe up top better than the maggie, and almost as good as the centri`s.

As far as coming to Capital tonight, I would love too, but, I`m still waiting on my blower... Starting to get a little irritated on that, but I`m sure its worth the wait. I see you have runn 11.35@126 and you have a cam as well as the Maggie. You do realize the Whipple makes almost that power (560rwhp vs your 581rwhp) w/ everything else stock? Plus I have run 12.2 already w/ 364 rwhp, only .88 seperates us and I will be adding over 200rwhp, so if I hook it would be very bad for you I would think... We should set up a winner pays the others cost to run that night kind of thing at the trak.. A freindly wager so to speak.. What type of tires do you run? 60 foot? It does sound like you have a very nice setup.
