Buy the single plane. The TPI is not the way to make power on a supercharged motor... plus the costs are way inflated over a good single plane.

Actually if you have aluminum heads on it already, they are pretty good, as are the iron heads...it is mainly the intake that kills off top end power. The factory intake is junk over 4500rpm.

Edelbrock 90 degree adapter is about $110, in a few different styles and heights.

Or would could get this for $360:



Some other options here:

I think that manifold will support pretty much anything your motor can handle. I think that it would seriously wake it up from 4500rpm upwards. In fact I would cam more like the HOT cam (218/228) if you go with that mani. If you didn't change the TPI runners I think this mani would be worth 50-75hp on top end (with the right cam).

After a while you'll need a new blower and then let the game$$$ begin

Send me a PM before you get a cam and let's see what you ended up with for parts.

The "B" in p660b stands for "Billet"

So if you have a billet impeller you have a p600b. They still will be "strait" blades which is called radial. Not until the D1 or D1SC did they every become curved blades, or what they call Helical cut.

Their were very very few P600's made that were not billet. So more then likley you have a P600B. But if you have the serial number, you can always call ProCharger and ask.

what can the bottom end of these motors stand up to? i know that the LS series motors can stand up to 500hp (at crank) all day but i always thought these generation of motors were quite a bit less durable at these power levels day to day.
the reason i ask is im considering a 3rd gen for my next project and was thinking about just putting in a 5.3 or 6.0 but that was before i knew these TPI motors were capable of this kind of power...

I honestly dont know what hp rating the stock bottom end has, i plan on doing heads and cam and holley stealth ram intake, and deltaT has said it should be hitting 500 at the wheels.. So we will see how she holds up.

If you get a third gen, definatly plan on getting a 9 in or 12 bolt rear, i already stripped 4 teeth off my pinion gear.. I have not been able to get a 12 or 9 in yet but plan on it.

It says on the tag, p600b, and i keep forgeting to write the serial number down. Thanks for the info about the helical cut impeller.

what will your cost be ($) in parts to get to the estimated 500hp level from where you are now not including the supercharger?
