Tom... I'm guessing the 2300 but I'll need to revisit that I also saw Edelbrock is now selling a supercharger too. Other than my buddy being a Magnusson dealer I like the smaller size and sound/power these are able to produce. I was thinking it would be a unique way to make some fun power on the street with a wicked sound. The other option would of course be a centrifugal/blow through and I could probably get the whole thing under the hood. I just like the thought of doing something different with a manifold blower.

George...thanks for the input, not the way I'm looking to go on this project.

Just wanted to throw another option at you. They (Weiand/Holley/B & M) are real POWERFUL street blowers that are made to last FOREVER and are easy to adapt than engine (I've done 3). Hope everything turnes out OK.

Speaking of sound. A guy I knew, decided to put a gear drive Cam Timing Set on his Chebby. Bolted everything on just fine, engine started fine, made lots of gear noise.

Could hear him coming a half a city block away. Cool for the first time you heard it then annoying (kind of like George) Just Kidding George.

Lasted barely a week before he removed the Gear stuff, sold it to a drag racer, and put a STREET factory timing chain back on the engine.
