the Ford GT is actually based on the supercharged ford 4.6 block which is used in the cobra and lightning as well. They come with the eaton positive displacement supecharger (similar to what's on my car) except they run a lower compression and bump up the boost a little. Kenne Bell makes twin-screw upgrades that have proven to make 4/5/600rwhp+
while i'm not generally a fan of ford... i think i'd have alot of fun with one of those motors.

PS: I couldn't view it either, but I know what you mean about the big block feel of the car and it still has the free revs of a small block!

I saw it fine. Around it was a dazzling error display, but I saw it.
Looks like 5psi in the upper ranges.
Time to turn it up Tony.

Did I also see 10.8 in the fuel ratio?

I dont know what that little white thing is that flutters around the screen either. I didnt put it there! It annoys the crap out of me also.
The fuel ratio never got above 11 except for a split sec or two into the run. As far as i can tell it hovered in the low to mid tens.
I will turn the boost up eventually, i have to get some things sorted first. Its in a very rough state of tune and i have air/vac leaks.. Once i get a better grasp on how to tweek the mixture/ fuel pressures i have a 2inch pulley that I may try and by my math should yeild 10-11psi? My guess is i wont get it to grip and reach that level anyway, but perhaps i will see. I do have a way to reach a pretty good level of boost with my bigger pulleys but im holding off on that for a bit as well. The way it is now, im on blessed time with a stock head gasket at 150k and besdies i cant get it to hook up anyway with the tires i have! More power isnt going to get me anything on the performance table at this point.

Vac leaks are a common source of frustration, it was for Shane and me. Tony with the right pulley up there you may need a hood scoop in the shape of a pulley ... maybe buy an old Continental's trunk and rivet that baby onto your hood?
