i recently put edelbrock performer 5.0 heads (6037)with the e303 cam and rpm2 manifold on my car i was wondering if i could put a blower like a paxton or vortech 6psi..the only thing is that i dont want to end up blowing up my motor or blowing head gaskets every time i push it hard??

is it a stock bottom end if so you will probably be fine but make sure to get a good tune before you start pounding on it. but all in all unless something else is freaked up then youll probably be fine.

I'd be more worried about the bottom end than o ringed heads.


I ran 8 pounds on a heads cam intake etc combo with hype pistons and roughly 9.5 compression and about 30 degrees total timing [Eek!] .

You'll by fine just get it tuned.
