Erik, I'm not trying to insult you man. I have dealt with so many customers reaching for the moon and their expectations are way too high for what their willing to spend. Sorry for coming off like they all need to spend a fortune to get a good deal. I have reviewed your customers request and the components he has in the build. Seriously, the combo is enough without the blown set up to get close to what he wants. Good idea about valving changes. Cam is not going to achieve the goal with out nitrous or a big change in stepping it up. The blower sounds like it's for show only I don't wanna sound cynical, but a Pro street set up or Comp eliminator or Pro street, etc? Different animal altogether. Carbs are going to change drastically for fuel metering under a forced draw. Please go back and read my post about that. A flow bench uses natural flow conditions and unless the bench tech was planning for this, they are going to be a handful to keep the customer happy. Cam specs are ground for natural aspiration, blown specs have quicker ramps to keep the valve "on top" of the piston as much as possible during piston travel and crank roatation. Shorter overlap, differently placed lobe centers as to application, etc. You've got some good pieces to work with, just some changes need to occur to effectively make things work right. That was all was putting across so the customer needs to get a new perspective. I in no way wanted to offend you. I have a phobia about busting my hump and the client is not seeing what he has and what he wants. Sorry dude, I want your projects to go well as I want mine.
