I'd like to swap to TBS blowers but only if I can find someone to take mine. Bump boost from 4 to 5#'s and call it good.
I still need to work on my pick ups a bit, i.e. shorten them 1/16".
And I'll probably thin (1/32-1/16") and shorten (1") the skeg.
Then back to props.

I like the world you live in where "tinkering" equals 10's of thousands of dollars. Where do I sign up? 
I'm hoping to hit 106 next summer. It'll do it, Deception Pass runs at 9 knots.
I think it'd take 200 more HP, 400 more RPM and a short winshield to hit teens.
That'd take blowers, TBI's, fuel system upgrades, ignition system, dyno time, program, oil coolers, and maybe exhaust.
BTW What HP are the stock 575 headers good to?
Should I have the bimini and surrounds down when going for full speed?

You must have good parts in your motors?
I have a set of msd programmable digital ign off my current motors going to sell cheap.
It's all there just a little tinkering lol

I saved my old windshield so if you need some top rail so you can shorten yours let me know I will donate a piece!

Factory ECU, ignition, block .030over/.010deck(I think .020 was stock), heads trued and a nice VJ, crank, Crane rockers, Milidon H beam rods, timing chain, oil pump and headers.
Aftermarket roller cam, .030 JE pistons, ARP hardware, Superchiller and 3.5" pully.
I'd do the windshield if I didn't have to lengthen the curtains too......and it didn't rain so much here!
