And do you have the EE supercharger as well? I can't remember if you do or don't.

It will see well over 300hp. We arent going full bore like my truck, but it should be pretty nice. I do have the EE SC.

Nah, its not too bad. IF, and I say IF, I am easy on it, I can get up to 17mpg on the hwy. Although, I can actually watch the fuel needle drop if I am running it on up in the rpms!!!

You can look on my website and see everything that I have done to it. I really dont wanna spill anything on the hp numbers until i finish EVERYTHING... that could take a while too!

Nope, they came out after my motor was finished. I couldnt justify spending 1200 bucks on the rods and having to buy another set of 750 dollar pistons, right after break-in period on my motor... Besides, I am only twisting it up to 7,500 rpms.
