V2 is oil feed off the motor
v3 is self contained

you will have to see off that serial number if that is a SI or T trim

Frank can tell you ( A&A)

Nah... had several prosective buyers on some property I'm selling and haven't heard anything back from any of them....

Oh well, I did give myself until the first of August to get rid of it... I was just surprised that i had all these potential buyers and then nothing.

We'll see what happens in the next few weeks.

I'm thinking ?????

Spoke with Stephen at England Green, gave him my mod items, he mentioned what I've got in mind they've done several times. He also mentioned I'm looking at 625 to 650 at the rear wheels on my stock bottom end.

I can only imagine how much more I'll get when I build my froged stroker down the road !

Hey Ray, don't forget to talk to that EASTCOAST company that does SUPERCHARGING also before you make your final decision. I can't remember their name but I hear really good things about them and make a wicked system!

I noticed there were alot of blower car guys replying to you. I just think they might be a little biased. I wouldn't totally dismiss the turbo idea until you've ridden in both types or done your research. I absolutely love my twins and would never go blower. I dont ever have to worry about breaking/shredding belts and boost change is at the touch of a button. Also not worried about heat. They are mounted in the fenders. Im not trying to tell you one is better then the other, just trying to keep you better informed that there are options out there that may yield better results and options that may suit your goals better. my 2. Good luck
