Thread: Blower or Turbo on a 406???

I have a 400 .060 over.
Speed Pro hyperutectics
vortecs
lunati bracket master II cam
All balanced

Alright guys, this was discussed before. And you guys recommended I didnt use a blower. I reconfigured my c/r and its going to be 10.84:1 with my current setup. I dont want to even try running pump now. I will be running Power 110 race fuel.

Now what I'm wondering, is whether a blower is suitable for this, as the temps would be dramatically reduced in the combustion chamber on race fuel

Also, whats your guys thoughts on a turbo setup?
And I know I'd have to change many things, crank, pistons, etc.

The current setup I have now SHOULD produce 430 hp. I wanna push around 500 horse at the flywheel. Do you guys have any other ideas? Can my stock block even handle 500?
Any advice is appreciated, especially erik, pat, denny, nitro, and anyone else.

Thanks
