Default ls3 procharger tips

Almost done with my current project and will be rolling right into another! I'm getting an ls3 from a 2011 ss soon that will probably go into a 1980s g body. the engine is stock (though I might put a mild cam in it.) what are some good procharger options? also would I need to upgrade anything to accompany the procharger?
The goal is to beat my buddy who's working towards 600 rwhp in his lt1

thanks.

F1-A Procharger, big exhaust, Meth injection, and a good fuel system should make 600+ no problem.

Take a look at the ProCharger Transplant Kits in the above link. This is a great way to go in a G Body. If you want to see a copy of the installation instructions, send me an e-mail to brutespeed@gmail.com asking for them. Bob

You could make 600+ with a d1 procharger on an ls3 pretty easily I would think..

You certainly don't need an F1A to make 600rwhp. I made 760/700 with my D1 and my setup wasn't even fully optimized.... and that was through a filter and intake.

I agree, a D-1SC combined with a good cam on an LS3 will easily make 700+ rwhp. Bob
