Probably but I don't want a Turbo. I stated that in my first post.

I just want something a little different. I see too many people around running Turbos. I just want to go with somewhat of an "Old School" theme and Supercharge it... Plus, I like the sound of a Procharger better

thats why im doing mine too insane... i want to be different from the crowd. i already have a F1a and complete setup. as soon as i get back from iraq i will be looking into all the other stuff. i was leaning toward going with a 370 and the run as much boost as pump gas would allow, and then have a small fuel cell of race gas i can switch over to at anytime. was looking into getting that pcm setup that has the dual flash memory in it, that way i can switch pretty much on the fly, along with wiring the fuel system to switch with the different tune

What do you guys think about using an Eagle Rotating Assembly for this kind of power? I would like to use Callies but Im not as well off as some people. I can get an Eagle Assembly for fairly cheap but Id like your opinions on its Power Limits...

I'm no expert on blowers. Just wondering if going with the "cheaper" rotating assembly is wise when you want a 1000hp blown car. Especially since you want it to be a reliable cruiser. An f1 or f2 takes alot of power to turn them. I would think that also puts stress on the bottom end. Maybe give Eagle a call and see if they can give any input. Again just my opinion....

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Thats why I was asking some of these more experienced guys what they thought about it.

1 big turbo, and a built LSX block should work nicely.

Might be able to get away with building a LQ block as well
