Default Whipple Chargers

I talked to Art Whipple today and they are making a 4.0 for lightnings and Cobra's now. He said it is possible to make 1000HP at the tires on the correct fuel and boost. Mitch

Hellz yea. You think I will be able to keep up with slow 03-1/2 or Reverend Brown with that blower.

Great, noone has actually figured out how to fuel the 3.4 to get it to perform to its potential on a 2v and now they are gonna make a 4.0. Someone get the Alaskan pipeline ready.

Ah, yes. Toilet bowl injection. My brother-in-law runs that setup on his Super-Comp dragster. Works good. I knew you needed to use real race tech in a farm truck to make it go fast. Now I see that I had it thought all wrong.

Those big blowers are sold mostly to car show contestants as far as i'm concerned. It kills me to see people buy the biggest blower and then run 15 pounds of boost. Just keep what you got and turn the bitch up.

Why do I have a feeling most of us know who you are talking about?

I'm pretty sure he's talking about me. But I no longer own that truck, so now he's talking about Daryl.
