Well, look at it this way Y2KSVT ran a 14.49 without PnPed heads (Fidanza, MSDS, Bassani, stock rims) I have only ran a 14.7 (so far, with the SS UIM/LIM, SS flywheel, PnPed heads (for nitrous), and 17" rims. ) Is it worth it? Only you can decide that. Originally posted by rickse99: Thanks , I did some reading and i guess its time for me to buy some 3L valves . No idea what they cost , anyone ? *Ryan* Trollin!
