38 psi? same as the tire psi in quite a few cars!

Thats a scary thought to even imagine! I don't even have a supercharger and I'd be scared to push 8 psi on stock block!

There are no words to describe the amount of awe coursing through my brain right now. Next August needs to hurry up and get here so we can all see this monster in action

shoot, 8psi ain't nothin... i'm running 8 on my 12yr-old stock LS1. the LS3 is good for more. Speedster's engine is... well... a lot better than a stock LS3

Awesome - Key West is a blast !! When you are there make sure you rent scooters and buzz around the island. It is a riot. Enjoy Kyle.

Work? work? You mean you actually have to go back to work? Glad you are healing up to do that. Could have been worse.

Oh man, we were just up in Pensacola the weekend before last for the Blue Angels show. So yes, I am a retard - if I had put 2 and 2 together and remembered you were there I would have given you a call.
