Lightining asked to make a new topic to continue the discussion on the member's raceboat. Jim I think you are correct. $4000 won't even buy the man a new blower, and a blower isn't going to shave 3.5 seconds of elapsed time in a car, and probably not a boat either. As I read the DRAGSTER it would take about $20,000 to buy a motor from Shafiroff or Reher Morrison or Schmidt that might make the ponies to go 10 seconds in this boat. I think 72 mph on a cam with 3 lobes is pretty impressive though. But when you say you are going to shave 4 seconds(13-9)throught the season, that is like going from SuperComp to Top Fuel in one year and $4000 just aint gonna do it.
