V8Venom's Whipple Build

[V8Venom]

Good Morning Mike,

Yea out here in Cali I run the 91 with the VP Racing Octanium to get it up to your 93 level. Dustin tested about 7 or 8 different brands and the Octanium gave it about a 7 deg difference in timing so it produced the best results. We'll see what the dyno says :shrug: Be good my friend :cheers:

Hey Dennis, I been out of pocket for a week. So do you HAVE to run the Octanium or is it something you are doing just to get to 93?

Got some Steeda Bushings in the mail while I was away. Going to take off my BMR ones on Sunday and install these.

Hi Mike, Love that Dyno graph If I had the stock pulley 3.75 then I could just run 91 but I dropped down to the 3.625 pulley so I need to run the VP Octanium to take advantage of the smaller pulley. If I didn't use the Octamium then the smaller pulley would pull too much timing. In a few weeks Hillbank is going to do some data logging to verify everything is optimal.

Yea that is what I was afraid you would say. My one turn off from moving back to California.

You can always go back to the 3.75 pulley and not use Octanium. I've found a place online that I only pay $12.75-$13.50 per can which is pretty good. I'm also starting to scout out stations that sell 100 octane racing fuel. More then I thought. Searching for one at reasonable price (better then $8.99/gal)

I definitely do not want to go back lol Yea $8.99 a gallon is crazy. :eyebulge:

Got some goodies in yesterday. Big thanks to [MENTION=10893]David@Steeda[/MENTION], you are an awesome dude! Going to be installing the bushings tomorrow, but for now the badges will suffice. Replaced my first Howler badges with the XL. Pics to follow. Here are the too side by side.

Looking good Mike! Excited to see all that installed!

Thanks Trevor! Just took some better pics of the badges since my community garage lighting sucks! The garage banner will just stay put until I actually have a garage lol. Haven't figured out where to put the decal yet though. Commence brain racking. :headbonk:
