Very nice, Paul. Glad to hear you're enjoying the car. What did you end up making power wise with the combination?

Thank you,it was 34 degrees yesterday and that didn't stop me from taking it out, lol.
It was 480 rwhp i believe. But between the converter not locking up and a low reading dyno i would guess it's close to the 680 at the flywheel that turnkey rates it at. For reference my Camaro which made 590 rwhp on the same dyno trapped 138 mph on street tires on a 1/4 mile pass at the strip. It currently makes 10psi but I'm going to get a different pulley and up it to 12-14.
