Re: So when are we going BOATING!?
Whew, I dont know that I can get Brian out this weekend. He's got to work saturday. If the sun's out strong sunday, it MIGHT be a possibility. I am thinking I can get him out within the next 2 weekends for sure. Maybe 5/12 or 5/19. Still talking about running downtown on Good Friday?

In hindsight, this is the perfect application for an intercooler,
relatively small blower on a fairly large motor, creating a lot of heat.
I think you will be VERY pleaed with the 3.3s and intercoolers.

PS If you see Bruce before I do, reserve me a ride on his rocketship!
PS #2 Gameover1stmate, so how's the weather looking for this weekend?

John,
Just a 27", showed 84. Swapped the 27" for a 28". Should keep me off the limiter..........

Re: So when are we going BOATING!?
Yes it did, by 1 5/8". That's not much compared to a seperate intercooler (generally 4"s), but my motor is mounted very high, and the motor is a tall roots/throttle body/breather configuration.
I reworked the hatch with the capable help of Canvas Unique who I recommend to all my friends. I was able to keep it stock looking and flat, and incorporated an extra air intake
in the rear, for a total of 5. It only had 2 stock.
Batteries are on charge , tomorrow if possible, listen for the roar .....................

Gameover1stmate,
Good Friday (3-25) sounds good to me. Anybody else interested?
If so, let's get our "social directors" to get parking permits for downtown.
