Considering putting a blower on my 406 - have a few questions!
Well i have a 400 .060 over right now. cast crank, re-conditioned 5.7 rods with arp bolts, speed pro hyperutectic pistons, vortec iron heads with 1.94 1.50's. runnin a lunati hyrd cam. All balanced. Alright so thats what im working with.
I'm considering a blower, but im wondering how well it will bolt up to the vortecs, whether there is a special blower for the bolt pattern. Also, with my combo, 64 cc heads, im at 10:1 c/r and i need to know how much a blower is going to increase my c/r, if any. As I would rather run it on pump gas
My combo should produce 425 hp and 523 lb tq. but with a blower id probably be pushing 550 hp with maybe 600 lb tq. you guys think my gm block would handle that much? with the rods, and crank? Is it worth it? this engine will be spinning 5500.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Cory
