Jimbo1367/STEEPSS......... its an 81 monte carlo. Motor is an (lm7) 5.3l, 325 out of a 04 silverado. Has 43,721 miles on it, 700 R4 with 5,806 miles on it. Carb set up from edlebrock with intake and ingnition box (with pills) with a set of headers from hooker or headman don't remember but promise to post pics 2ma. If any more info needed in order to help me please let me know. Thanks for the insight thus far!!!
i would get a stall that is suitable for the boost and supercharge it. or you can just supercharge it. in that car a cam and stall would be nice also. this is a hard decision. if your looking for good street manners supercharger is the way to go.
A little bit dramatic for a non-urgent thread but okay. One is $4500, the other could be done for $700. Is one $3k+ better than the other? It's so subjective the only one who can tell you what you like will be you, after you've done it.

Thanks for all the input that you guys have chimed in so far. I really am trying to stay as close to streetable/highway/daily driver as I can due to the fact the miles are so low. I also am wondering should I go with a bigger carb? Buddy of mine has a 750 fairly new, as aposed to my 650, also need input on a rearend setup (gears) with the 3 choices of 342,373,410 with 18inch rims and tires

MillsMotorvation....... Ive thought about that as well, but how streetable will my car be after that upgrade? I commute five days a week about 45mins a day, I was under the impression that was so good for daily drivers.
