Thread: Supercharged Chevy 350 Build Help!

I agree that you won't need a blower to make 500hp. I would be looking at a good set of aluminum heads (nothing wrong with Brodix, but I prefer AFR) I'd use the 195cc intake runners with AFR's, but maybe a little bigger with the Brodix heads. The fuel available to you at the pump will determine the static compression ratio you build into the motor (about 10.0:1 limit with aluminum heads, 92 octane and a tight squish of 0.035" to 0.045")and the static compression ratio will determine the camshaft. The camshaft used will determine the final drive gear ratio and converter stall. The higher the static compression ratio you use, the more you move away from street-friendly and into race motor territory.

I would do a 383 also, but would use 5.7" rods to prevent moving the pin into the oil ring like you do with 6" rods.

now come on guys what's wrong with a blower or 2???. Of course there right you can get 500hp easy without a blower, good heads,stroke it,headers and wham your there.
