Im pissed yours will be done before mine, especially since I have been working on mine FAR longer
then you have on yours (at least I think) but I'm cool with it. Especially since a project delaying,
life decision took over. I finally have my engine in my garage here, I did more detailed drawings of
the proposed manifold. It's still many months away from any progress. I still have to purchase all
my big tools (lathe and mill). The TIG welder came home with the engine thankfully, I know I will
need that. The big delay has only helped me afford the project, and put MUCH more thaught into
exactly how to execute the plan. Needless to say, my goals are lofty. I went with the M112, a
2:1 blower ratio (should theoretically push 15-17 PSI) I also decided on the 3.5L forged steel
crank, and the 4340 steel H beam rods witch are intended for a 4.3L I have a cast aluminum
pan and cross bolted caps from a 3100. I plan on ordering custom forged pistons, especially since
the rods have a pin diameter of .927" All managment will be handled via a 1227730 GM ECM running
a highly modified $8F Code. I've spent the past year hacking GM ECM's and have learned a
rediculous amount about them. I enjoy modifying the programming to do anything I can dream
up. Yes, they can do your taxes for you if it's programmed right.
Enough about mine, Im fairly anxious to see the results of your project. I'll bet it suprises the heck
out of you when you take it out. I don't doubt if your tune is good, and your drive ratio is proper,
300 horses shouldn't be a problem. But more importantly, the super wide torque band that it will have.

Shoot, don't even bother with a cowl. Cut out a little bit more of your hood and mount your air filter directly to the throttle body.
That looks great. I think you're going to have a little bit of trouble getting anyone to line up with you except at the strip. Or maybe that will just weed out the ones you'd toast anyway. Haha.

All I have to say is nice job. It takes some skill to get parts to work on these engines. Dentonation should not be a problem if he uses good gas and cooling the supercharger well it should get massive amount of cooling just like that and better if he had a functional cowl. Also now that the rear head can breath his motor will run better.

ignore shaun, he's just jealous. I saw your pics, ran out to the garage and grabbed my body saw, then the wife showed up panting in my wake screaming, "NO F*CKING WAY ARE YOU DOING THAT TO MY CAR!!!!!" I've tried to get her to see reason. We need to start a support group for husbands who aren't allowed to do extreme mods.
Seriously tho- I think it looks cool as hell man, but it does really blow my whole "sleeper" image away if I did. your doing it right and that's all that counts, good luck!sigpicHow to make High performance Emissions:
A "true" High flow converter, straight pipe.
Low/No flow EGR valve, block off plate.
Carbon canister and purge valve mod, place in large 30 Gallon can, cover, and place curbside, the city will do the rest.
PCV valve and vent tube, reroute to exhaust to dump where it belongs, on the ground. Or add breathers and let it all free.

I disagree on the air temp thing. If a forward facing cowl is used, outside air will cool the housing of the supercharger, making an almost automatic intercooling setup. If a reverse cowl is used, then it's much easier than normal to set up a true cowl induction setup.\"NASCAR is an integral part of my life. A part of me died when Dale Earnhardt died.\"

Sweet!! I wouldn't put a hood scoop on it. The blower is so beautiful, just let it sit out in plain sight! Just my two cents. But really, a cowl induction hood would look soooo sexy if done right. Again, just my two cents.If it\'s fun, it\'s probably illegal and if it\'s illegal I\'m probably doing it.
