thats pretty impressive, 3 tenths in the 1/8 over a FIRST, was that a FIRST long tube setup ?
are you going drag racing ?
your ahead of me, still hoping to fire mine up tomorrow, the pressure is on, I have entered for the next hillclimb on 23rd June and i still need to run it in !
... Yessir , the FIRST intake is a very strong manifold and very under-rated ... most overlook the fact that it comes with a monoblade throttle body for less than $1000.00 ..... it has its RPM limits and , like the other TPI style intakes , its a pain to install ... but it makes power with those large diameter runners .............. And Yes , I drag race this car ... its street driven as well ... still has working A/C and a six speaker CD stereo system .......

Ah, so you've got a nice hook up. Well done. Just incase you didn't know, there is a nice shop just a block down from you on 34th way (Street next to Citgo). Eagle Racing. They do a lot of fantastic cages for drag cars and have done some nice work on my bagged truck.
