[QUOTE="Racingrob, post: 16143532, member: 131442"] Well right now I have a stock blower with a 2.93" and full exhaust that made 488RWHP. But I had an early morning incident a couple months back where the radiator sprung a leak and I didn't realize it and it severely overheated so the motor is hurt and it might be the piston rings. I think it will at least need a head gasket because under load the cooling system gets pressurized and coolant sprays out of the reservoir cap. Car is at Revolution Auto rn for diagnosis. So my plans are to go to a set of after market cams (I'm dying for the sound) and a stock ported blower with a 2.76" pulley. I figure it could be around 550whp on E85 at that point, so a fuel system is needed. 600HP fuel system to be safe? If it needs a short block, I'll be bumping the compression up a slight bit. Still not sure how much of a bump over 8.5:1 is reasonable but if I'[m doing a short block, I figure I might as well. Yeah I know it'd be cheapest and fastest to spend the same money on a replacement longblock and throw a VMP/Whipple on it, but I'm really into doing something to the motor lol [/QUOTE]
