Starting ro drop it in tomorrow night and waiting on my blackbear tune, hope to have the black hoe back on the road very soon!
Ya know, I always wondered what an engine looked like.

So, you like loud engines? Have you been educated with what happenes when you go from 5.3 to 6.0? You get the HP, but you pick up noise. A lot of noise. This is one loud ass engine, so if you put a K&N on, and it's still in the box, send it back. You wont be able to here anything in the cabin.Go with the Volant with Cold Air Scoop. Works better, you want the sound out the back end, not the front.

I have the Volant with the cold air scoop, and it's loud, but def in a good way. Even hitting the pedal 1/4 of the way is really noticeable. I love it!

Did you put the MagnaFlo in? I have a 12x24 with a Resonator. I especially like the Volant on the highway, cheap super charger! Now I just need a snorkel. You never know when you need one...

I think there's a power flo in it. Don't remember, bought it from a forum member. It's a dry filter. IMAG1317.jpgIMAG1322.jpg
