Sorry to say this but looking at your list of mods, I'd seriously hold off thinking you are going to beat any V8s in a straight line.

Beat the Mustang GT that was squeazing the other night. I dont know what he was spraying but it kicked hrd in second gear. plus after the race he wanted to change his jettings, But at the same time He claims he doesnt spray HMMMMM

LOL it was like someone one a NHRA event the way people were yelling. when I came back.

48mm to 50mm is a 2mm difference the socks won't matter. The difference is measured at the manifold/throttles not at the top of the airhorn. Btw, the difference between going with 48mm and 50mm is where the power will be. The shorter the intake tract (airhorns included in overall length) the higher up the rpm band your power will move, but you will lose bottom end power and drivability at the same time. ((Drivability is far more important than top end power, street wise. It's a fun project, that I'd probably wouldn't do again. Sorry to say this but looking at your list of mods, I'd seriously hold off thinking you are going to beat any V8s in a straight line.

one, why wouldn't you do this project again cuz i am looking to start on my 03. and, what do you mean by the driveaility? how does 50 affect driveabilitly as 48 doesn't? i dotn get it.
