I love a good Pro-Charger as much as anyone.

But I have an 11 to 1, flat tappet cammed small block that I can drive any where in the country on 89 pump swill. I have a plate nitrous system under the carb which I pieced together for less than 600 bucks, weighs next to nothing and inhibits none of the car's streetability.

I arrive at the track, bolt in a bottle, pour in some 114 octane and run a best of 9.43-139.

If that makes me a typical cheap, old school, stuck in the eighties Mopar guy...so be it!

Probably cost....I have priced them, they are not a cheap. And pretty much requires an aftermarket block, which nobody has anymore. Thought about doing it many times.

That's my kinda ride.MUST be streetable on pump junk then change a pulley and add octane at the track.If you were real old school,it would be a huffer! My heap is 3700 lbs.Mid 9's with 4 lbs on the pump and low 9's with 6 lbs on c12 through the exhaust and tail pipes getting choked!
I put dumpers on and will step on it this fall in the good air!

My Procharged BBM started life as a 440, and you said "all." So I guess I just shot your theory all to heck. cool
