Pro charger help!!!!!!!!!!! In about a year or so I will be doing an Ls swap in my 66 chevy biscayne. I would like to do a pro charger unit (Disc possibly). I would like to achieve about 700 rwhp, a choppy cam, and a lil low end torque that will pull forever. I don't want to really have to spin the charger to its max to retrieve the 700hp goal. This as a 99% street driven car and I drive it everywhere. What block should I start with and Why...
5.3 (iron) forged internals
6.0 Lq9 forged internals
370 6.0 Lq9 forged internals
408 Lq9 forged internals (probably have to switch to F series pro charger)
OR 6.0 LQ4
Please share your opinions
Thanks
MJ

I'm 10.1:1 compression on pump gas and meth injection with no problems. You said this was a 99% street car, Low compression will be a dog down low and out of boost. I had a low compression 347ci and wasn't a fan of the part throttle and out of boost driving. With my new 383ci on 10:1 compression It has a ton of power down low and is much more enjoyable to drive around town again... Not just wide open throttle on the hi-way.

I went to a paint shop and had them mix me rattle cans with a hi-temp additive. It was enamel base base paint, that had a 24 hour shelf life. It's been holding up great to all the heat. Sienna Red Metallic is the color, its a 1998 Mitsubishi color.

I think the 370 would probably do you best in this situation. Definitely try for 10-10.5:1 static compression and ~.035" quench. Look into Tony's new 223cc "Sportsman" cathedral port heads with his 1.6" exhaust valve upgrade. I would run an intercooler for sure, and a simple single nozzle meth kit for added safety. It's just windshield washer fluid, it's not like it's expensive or anything, and the additional insurance it provides is worth it.
On 93 you'll be fine and even better off with a alky control kit.

I would, and plan to, run the self contained D1, or D1SC. Fewer points for leakage, in my opinion. You have to keep up on maintenance with everything, so keeping track of and logging how many miles are on your head unit, and replacing the blower oil as recommended should not be too much trouble.

Currently I have a forged 383 stroker in my biscayne. It has a very choppy cam. I would like to retain the choppy rumble along with the pro charger. Is it possible to use a 600 something lift cam with the pro charger and still be able to pull high rpms?
Check out my blower cam, it has a nice choppy idle and works very with a ProCharger. Bob

Wow that cam looks and sounds great!!! I will surely be emailing you to get more info
Not sure I understand all 4 of the choices. Whats the difference between a 6.0 all forged and a 370 6.0 all forged? Rhetorical question really. The difference is one is .030" over bore on one. I assume since you are doing a forged bottom any of the engines will be getting a fresh bore and pistons anyway.......so that is why I'm trying to understand what you are getting at for the difference.
I voted 408. No replacement for displacement......unless you are class limited.
