What would you go with on a 416 LS3 with VVT?

Cam will be a custom grind. Bottom end completely forged with 9.1 compression.
Will go with the trickflow or prc L92 castings heads.

So which charger would you go with and why?

No looking to go turbo or cetrifugal. This is going into an autox car so quick torque is what I am after.

The new Eaton TVS models have proven to be very efficient and produce a ton of power. As you may know, thats the same model as used on the ZR1. Its hard to beat the combination of OEM reliability and huge power gains.

The TVS is also very quiet in operation, unlike traditional roots blowers which have the famous S/C whine. Whether thats a good thing or a bad thing is up to you though.
