Congrats Bro

Can't wait to hear how much your Horsepower and performance increase.

I am also a big Whipple fan.

Dustin's Merc 1075 kit takes it to 1225hp + Pretty impressive!

Good luck.

Please post your results.....

Thank u
If you had an intercooler with your 10-71, the Whipple will end up being shorter in overall height. I can give you an exact height tomorrow if you want since I have 4 of them in the shop now. They are all 5 liters, but externally they are the same as the 8.3L

From the china wall of the block (the highest point of the block, where the intake sits) to the highest point on the blower is 16". This is a 5.0L with a MOAC intercooler. The 5.0L is externally the same size as the 8.3L.
Hope that helps.
