Thanks for the replies. I'm sure I'm going to be sure to pop the hood while in the staging lanes at the track, you know, to cool the engine off while everyone gets a peek.
HotRoddin, I went ahead and got the 130 amp 3G alternator for exactly that purpose. Hehehe, not really, I bought it for another car I have and turns out the alternator wasn't bad so I used this one for my project. Did you guys notice that underdrive crank pulley? It's the same freaking size as the alternator pulley!!! When I saw that on ebay, I was like, damn, I have to have that. I don't know why, but I absolutly love the short belt setup. I'm gonna love hearing people say "no power steering?" or "where's your smog pump and A/C?" I'll just say "I didn't want to buy the A/C delete kit, so I did this."
