Hey guys,
I built a 408 with 8:1 compresion for a blower application it produces 385 RWHP and 420 RWTQ NA right now. the car has a complete Griggs suspension, T56 transmission, Griggs Alum drive shaft and everything but the kitchen sink. the set-up is perfect for road racing, should I add the blower and blow away everyone on the streets it keep it as is.

well if your building the car for road racing then you really don't need that much more hp\tq to have fun. however, that 408 weighs a lot so the extra hp with a blower will help. i say get a blower!! i'm building my car for road racing and i love mine!!! ![[Wink]](wink.gif) ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)

I'm pretty sure I saw your car up on the lift at Apex a few weeks ago. Nice ride.
As far as your question, I think you can answer that yourself

If I go with a T-trim, it will be very hard to resist running @ higher boost, if I stay around 10 psi with a V2SQ I should be in the neighborhood of 600 RWHP and 625 RWTQ
