Default 416 with V-2?

I have a 11:1 416 and I was wondering if it would be worth slapping a vortech V-2 on her? I have the V-2 kit, but the higher motor compression and smaller blower size worry me.

I have two main questions, can I run 6-8lbs boost on 93?

Can the blower support larger boost if I were to run e85 and large injectors?

Should I sell it all and leave my 416 vette on nitrous and just build my viper? haha

You could get away with it on low boost but that blower is way undersized for even a 376 let alone a 416.

Would it make any power? I would hate to install it and not make any power with her. Right now the 416 is making like 530whp before I put on the fast102.

It will make power just run out of steam the more you spin it.

Ok, I wasn't sure but I think I'll put it on then. I'll keep my one stage of nitrous and just keep the stand alone filled with race fuel. 416 plus a little boost and maybe a 75-100 shot... fingers crossed lol.
