Holy crap!!

Questions:

1. Is the turbo somewhat big for that displacement?

2. What is done to the 347 so that it can handle boost?

Whistler, whats the max potencial of the 106mm??? and what are you aiming for once you get the proper block in there??? what are you going to be using for an intercooler??? dry ice maybe??

there is a corvette pushing over 2200bhp from his 106mm.

Chris.
