What boost are you currently running Mike?

I'm running the "Sneeky Pete" system from NOS with a #28-#32 jet and a 5lb bottle (in the toolbox for "stealth"). The #28 is approximately a 30HP shot and I do change them depending on my mood (Monday or Friday/Saturday evening.) ;)

The Sneeky Pete system is a dry system but won't harm the engine since it's not enough for the computer to require additional fuel enrichment (your Powerdyne FMU will work just fine). You will need to run Super Unleaded though.

(You really do need either a V8 throttle body or modified - Flometrics/Fastman to really get the most out of it...but you know that anyway.) ;)

I'd recommend you go with the 9# pulley first. The 6# works "ok" but the V6's really like the 9# boost. :)

The Sneeky Pete system runs about $200 from Summit Racing (or Jegs) and the 5lb bottle is about $160. (The Sneeky Pete comes with a 2lb bottle...doesn't last very long.)

Fastest time: 15.2 @ 89.22mph (had tire slippage out of the hole)
Fastest Speed: 15.31 @ 90.51mph (fresh bottle but spun them out of the hole again)

Without any tire spin (had to relearn the launching of the truck due to the lowering kit), a 15.0 is not a problem and a 14.8-14.9 is well within reach as well - Switched to a 35HP shot after the Houston meet...much quicker now. :)

Oops...here's the link to my timeslips:

http://www.speedtweaks.net/images/TimeSlips.jpg

These were from the Houston Show (10/6 and 10/7).

60-foot times are pretty good as well but could be improved upon without tire slip. (Need some drag slicks.)

I can run however much I want...all depends on how quickly I want to turn the engine into a mushroom cloud. ;)

45-50Hp shot is about max on the stock bottom end with a supercharger. They're Hypereutectic pistons (factory) so they can only take so much abuse. If you want to run a 75-100Hp shot with a Blower (making 9# boost), you really want to swap out to some H-Beam rods and Forged dish-top pistons.

I'm running a 35HP shot now and the A/F meter runs a litle bit on the lean side...but still within safe limits. Not going to push it higher though.
