I don't think he's planning on using the 11:1 compression setup. Most likely it will be a Stage 1/Stage 2 kind of project, so will be some time before he's juiced. Or not. 1998 Silver Frost SVT Contour born on...8/28/01[/i] American Iron Shootout Radial Tire 2 Class Champion, Cecil County Dragway April 20, 2002

Something like that. :p Definitely getting forged rods and pistons, though as I plan on anywhere between a 100-125 shot. Still not sure on what kit to get, though. Problems I'm running into are fuel management and nitrous distribution. I'll probably plumb the nitrous into the fuel system with a new N2O kit from Holley. I've been on the horn with them a bit and they've been very helpful and, most importantly, informative!

It looks sweet to me but the people at nos/holley said it raises the fuel rail about an inch. I don't think it would be any difference on the 3.0 but on my 2.5 svt motor we don't have the room for a higher fuel rail... Otherwise that kit would be in the mail to my House =) 99 SVT with resonatorless exhaust and open element intake Sound System: Clarion touch Screen Source Unit Focal Components,Audiocontrol eq, eclipse Subs and Amps
