That's great stuff. No worries, if had as many viruses as my computer I'd be dead!

I was just curious about the Scorpion specs. I only have 208 hours on my stock 6.2 MPIs. All the pros have weighed in stating that there is no easy horsepower to be gained on the "regular" 6.2s. I guess it was a lot easier back in the carburetor days when I just switched to an iron Z-28 hi-rise, rejetted the Quadrajet, and picked up several m.p.h.

I hear ya Wes.... I would like to find another 50-60 HP a side. The more I look I realize that it would not be worth he $$. Next step is freshen up the top end and wipples.... But that's a big step

mptrimshop - It does not seem like there are any upgrades that pencil out. Heads, cam, intake, throttle body, headers, and computer tune times two... plus new props for maybe 10 m.p.h.? Whipples would probably require forged pistons and stronger rods at a minimum, and headers. What goes in must come out. And Whipple recommends some good sized oil coolers so add another grand to that upgrade. I would also venture the Whipples might put the Brovo 1s near the edge. A lot of money to put into a 29' that would still probably not be any faster than a 35' Fountain with stock 496s. Maybe someone out there knows some affordable magic!
