Special thanks to Jim LaBreck for installing my new plugs, wires, and Crane HI-6 and doing a great job!
N-Tech Engineering BMK (Battery Miniaturization Kit)
I recently purchased N-Tech's BMK. The kit includes a much smaller battery that weighs only 14.5 pounds (I weighed it) which is 22 pounds lighter than my 36.5 pound stock battery! The kit also frees up more room for air-flow and allowed me to mount my Crane HI-6 ignition amplifier to the new battery box. Although the battery is tiny, it is 100% maintenance free and puts out enough juice to turn over big V8s. I haven't noticed any problems and am very happy with it so far.

Crane HI-6 Ignition Amplifier
To cure my ignition break-up at high rpms under high boost (fairly common problem), I purchased a Crane HI-6 ignition amplifier. So far, it seems to be working great and power no longer drops off above 6500 rpms under high boost (around 13 psi). Mounting the Crane to the BMK worked out really well. In addition to installing the Crane, we also installed new spark plugs (all 9's) and 10mm Magnecor wires. I hope to get back on the dyno soon.
