Is that just a 2-core intercooler?
quadcammer said:1. yes its perfectly fine. If you lower compression, you may be down on power a bit, but there is nothing wrong with doing so.
2. Depending on what changes are made. If all you do is lower compression a bit, and leave the rest of the motor stock (ie no headwork or cams), then you should be fine with the stock programming. Once you get into cams and headwork, you'll want to tune it NA, to make sure that its not so rich as to wash the oil off the cyl. walls, and not too lean to damage the pistons.

modperf and vt are in michigan, and boss is in florida

planning on doing this over the summer!!
4340 rods or the series I (1200hp) if i do a D1sc?
whats that?
you mean aluminum rods? they like to heat up and expand quite a bit, so you need a shorter rod, with holes in the bearings for nubs to prevent the bearing from moving when the rod heats up. bottom line, if you need a light rod, go with a forged I beam.
hmm, thats a great question. Manleys sportsman I beam forged rod would be just the ticket for you.
