How 'bout a pic of that pump please?

Gimme a lil' bit. I gotta walk over to the in laws, pull those parts from the cabinet, mock them back up on the engine, take a picture, then put it all back away in the parts cabinet. Or would you be satisfied with my parts set out next to the engine and a picture taken?

A very good forum to gain extremely reliable info is realoldspower.com. Bill Travato, Dick & Andy Miller, and current Mondello personnel, and Rocket Racing are there often to give great feedback and help.

I've not run the spacer bare, it was a 2" nitrous plate before; however, the higher velocity the air charge the better, but we suffer low end a little. You're setup looks like mine but mo' purdeeee! I remember seeing somewhere, I think one of the marine stores, fully jacketed BBO headers, in the 3k range, that's what I want. All under the hood sleeper.

The rockers are S5003. Everyone, Dick Miller Racing, Bill Travato Racing, Mondello, all recommend the S5003. I also run a vacuum pump on it to keep the crankcase around 8"hg, helps seal the rings and found that on a dyno it adds 10-15hp.

The pump sounds like good choice. You might want to check those rockers though if your cam has more than .540 lift. The 50016 or 5017 have offset p/rod cups,better movement all round. All depending on your build tho.
