ah, good catch Brian, I have to agree , ditch the unilite, I burnt out 2 moduels years ago, and they are not cheap to replace.
I knew a guy years ago, 70 big block tubbed camaro, would drive around and when things got warmed up enough, the engine would die. Let it cool off for a couple of hours and it would run again...oh yes a unilite there too.
A blower on gas throws off a lot of heat, not good for a unilite sitting right behind it...
your compression will be too high for gas, it will detonate itself to death. and you really dont want to run expensive race gas on the street, takes all the fun out of it.
If you really want all that compression, then you will have to underdrive it lots and make very little boost on the street.
At the track , take the carbs off and put a hat on with alky, and fly.....
