How much does cubic inch size matter with these big blowers? The previous owner build a great flowing, solid motor good for well over 1,000 hp, but for some reason chose to stay with a 347 ci. displacement. I know that for a turbo car, a bigger stroked motor will make more power off boost and spool up quicker as well. The only advantage I can think of with a s/c setup would be more power capability on pump gas, but the smaller motor might rev a little higher. I have seen some pretty badass drag cars with destroked motors so there must be some reason for it. Anyone have any input?
