Any mods?

theres more in the works, new cam, FP, injs, few other lil things here and there before April... Gunning for verrry low 13s
I think compression is 9.6 + an M90

having any work done to the heads?
How much boost?
How much power can you make before the drivetrain
becomes a liability?

If i wanted reliability, i would have bought a Schwinn 
j/k
Running into some tranny issues right now, starting to slip a bit, but the GTP trannys are good to high 12s, going to swap for a gtp tranny in April, send mine out to be built up t handle a little more than that.
Heads are in the future plans, but had to buy a ring this year, so the heads/IC are being postponed a year.
Boost, not sure, but running a 3.4 pulley, hoping to drop to a 3.2 by April, and a 3.0 by October. No boost gauge as of yet, but most 3800 guys go by pulley size anyway.
The turbo cars can run a decent about of boost w/ worries.
exactly do you mean about reliability, the tranny or engine?
Like i said the stock GTP trannys are good for high 12s
Engine, them seem to be almost bullet proof, until you get below a 3.0 pulley. the #3 &4 pistons seem to be a weak spot, but thats directly below the blower, so most guys run those a little richer. There are alot of guys that are chipping pistons, etc, but not too sure on thier setup, most of them are mid-low 12s from what i remember, Im still learning all this sooooooo...
