My input is that an F1C is a waste at that boost level.

The F-1C and F-1R are .75 larger in diameter and a little longer than the D-1SC and F-1A. The F-1C and F-1R also use a .25 larger inlet. You would have to use a customer inlet, a 4.00" alum elbow and a t-bolt clamp works really well. It would be hard to slow an F-1C down enough to only run 10lbs of boost, and it also uses up more horsepower to turn it. Bob

Yeah definitely going to be an inefficient combo for awhile, but whiteboycntdance did put an F-1C on his stock LS1 and had it like that for over a year and was fine, so it's not impossible. You can use the piping from a D1SC.
