Setup suggestions? Nitrous? cams?
Okay, I'm about to get back into the scene now that I'm out of Basic Military Training, and I'm 1/2-way through tech-school... Here's my setup and I want some suggestions from some of you guys who are fast and know why ;-)
b18a block w/ JE pistons 5.7 dome and Eagle H-beam rods, + block guard (yea... I know.)
b16a head milled .035 with ITR valvesprings/retainers,
stock cams, CTR intake manifold, b18a throttle body, cm stage 3 kevlar clutch, LS tranny, Skunk2 P28 ECU, RC 310cc injectors.
Let me know what all you guys think I should do... compression should be around 10.5 to 11:1 I was thinking to get some 22" slicks, get the JG Edelbrock Intake manifold and throttle body and put a Direct port 100 shot on it with MSD 6AL and get a stock ECU, and of course, tune it.
Let me know what everyone thinks...

Sounds like a good setup, cams and valvetrain, take a serious look at the EF-1 stuff at http://www.ef-1.com/ great stuff, great prices, and rocket is the man. Nitrous, that should handle a 100 shot easily as long as its wet, hell, even a 150 wouldn't be straining it with rods and pistons. Also ditch the B18A t/b and get an H22 or ITR, and I'd go without the blockguard. AEBS intake manifold seems to be making slightly more power than the ITR, plus its only $200, so there's another option. Also, for launches on slicks and lots of abuse, consider the stage 4 clutch.
good luck!
