Whats up Rob? I haven't really mentioned that it isn't running right. The problem started out and I thought it was something simple like bad gas, or a fouled plug. Swapped plugs, got new gas, tossed injector cleaner and water remover into the tank. Ran another tank and still acting up. Runs REALLY crappy in the lower RPM's and idles really rough. So I take it to ford and they did some tests on it, and said I have no compression in my #7 cylinder. I just got back from NJ, so tommorrow im going out and going to test each cylinder for compression. Hopefully he is wrong and thats not true. Hopefully its a coilpack or something not as bad... Ill let ya know.

Geez, I've run 11.84 @ Cecil back in March with a stock blower, stock heads, and stock cams without nitrous. I wonder how much ET reduction I could expect from a 100 shot of the funny stuff?

Hello Shane, yes I have a built bottom end, JDM built short block plus all the usual bolt ons. I'm running a 8# lower pulley, stock upper, E-fan, cobra W-pump, single blade T-body, JLP ram air, REM smooth intake tube, JLP powercooler, JDM heat exchanger, JDM/Kooks longtube headers and hi-flo cats, Magnaflow single 2 in 2 out muffler, JDM traction bars, QA1 adjustable rear shocks, Monster box tranny, 3.73 gears replacing my stock 3.55's, Hoosier Slicks, stock blower(for now) stock heads and cams, and a good, safe tune courtesy of Jim @ JDM. I guess that about covers it, John H.
