I asked a shop a while back and I believe he said a little over $4k.

planning a rebuild this winter,changing out to cp pistons9-1 and oliver rods,switching the eaton to a 3.4 whipple and armstrongs will flow the heads with all the needed trimmings,how much boost can be used on pump gas

17-18 lbs. depending on how much timing you go with. I think the 3.4 Whipple with the stock pulley is already at 25 lbs. of boost or somewhere close.

[nickster]

i was hopeing with the low compression and the high fow heads that it would be higher,scott what do you use for fuel at 25lbs

32oz of Torco mixed with 5 gallons on 93. Gets me about 99-100 octane. I lowered my boost though to 22lbs or so depending on weather. If you have E85 which I don't that's the way to go.

[nickster]

no e85 here ,talked to livernios today,going with a 2.9 whipple ,oliver rods,costom dimond pistons,and porting the sh-t out of the heads.will pully to around 16lbs and start there,not to be done till fall

[Scott McClure]

I'm not even sure you can pulley the 2.9 Whipple down. Plus your going at this the wrong way. A big blower pullied "down"= poor results especially with lower compression as you put it. Plus I wouldn't waste my money on porting heads, I would put it elsewhere, like more boost.

Anything else to get more power without building the bottom end?

Thanks man. Timing was at 15 to 16 for almost 2 yrs with the stock pulley but with the Killer Chiller and 3.4 pulley we bumped it up a *

Are your cams degreed to your blower set up?

[L.T. Smash]

sadly no, they are still degreed to 108/114 from the NA set up. if i ever get motor work done they will definitely get re-degreed for a supercharger set up.

[SHAKN' 04]

At least yours aren't as bad as mine lol mine ar at 106/110. Still make darn good power though

[Flash88]

i want those cams for my car!!

Would boost go down with the cams?

No I don't think so. Since mine aren't degreed to my blower setup, it's holding back a few ponies but nothing too serious I would need at this moment anyway lol.
