    I suppose I should give the full roadmap for the engine. I want to switch to fuel injection and be running e85 before adding boost to help keep things cool. I'm doing this all one step at a time however. Adding fuel injection is the next step, then switching to running on e85, then adding a supercharger with intercooler setup. I'm hoping that will keep things cool enough since 10:1 is a tad high for boost. Planning on running around 7lbs of boost, no more then 10 for sure. Goal is just to reach 700 hp. What I'll probably do is have a <600ish hp setup for street driving with a 700hp set up for the track. My builder knows my plans for the engine. I'll have to ask about a warranty, but given my track record with breaking in engines, he may not want that lol
