i own a ss anything you want to see let me know.
As far as speed...i have a 600sci in mine ran it stock all last year. The best i hit was 97 with two people and half tank of fuel water was perfectly smooth. On july 5th i had a good head wind a 1 foot chop full of fuel with four people and two coolers and hit 94, i think i could have hit 100 that day if i pushed everyone out, but if's and buts are candy and nuts right.
Going to do the stg 2 kit from whipple this year and get that 100 deal that my ego is pressing me on.
