Default New Gto heads/cam/intake and supercharged

I started a post in the internal engine section but thought it would be better suited over here in the forced induction section..

Well so far I have been reading the Forced Induction sections and Internal engine tech over here and trying to see what the best setup would be I know what procharger unit I want to go with the D-1 with a 8 rib setup (seems they have some slipage issuses on the belt on the 6 rib) I need to find out more info on AFR's heads for the LS1 and a good cam choice for a supercharged ls1 is there any other intakes other then ls6 intake that are out there? (That are not to pricey like lingfellers one) im doing this on the stock bottom end so I will be keeping boost down in the 8 psi range and will be probley installing the heads and cam over the late fall - winter season But the charger will go on now (I want to at least break her in first) and of course a good dyno tune after the install. Anyone know if anyone withc experiance with dyno tunning supercharged ls1's in the NE Ohio and knows what they are doing let me know as I had a computer custom ordered for my mustang when I had it as I knew of no places that did any dynos out here( Couple of freinds said they had a mobile dyno unit up at norwalk a few times) but they did no tuing it was just there to get the numbers. I like to do my research before I just go buy parts and slap them on thats what I did before and had a nice combo on the mustang till I twisted the oil pump shaft and lost oil presure and well needless to say should of been watching the gauge when it let loose. Sofar a Procharger D-1SC 8 rib setup (Room for exapsion) A good set of afr's that are ported (where to find) and a nice cam profile thats good for street drivabilty and for the blower application (not to ruff in the idle) Im going to be driving this on the street mostley doing daily driving and to work and college classes besides in the winter so I do not want somthing that is just not drivable that why I love supercharging there when you want and not when you don't The only other thing I can think of is what Size Injectors would be recomened to run ( I do belive the procharger kit comes with them not sure though) and any other thing that would need upgraded to handle this (Drivshaft? ect) Of course a bigger MAF but other then that?

Phew long post but im excited and want to get something together soon

Thanks.
Dale

i think people have been able to get 7-8psi with out a whole lot of belt slipage, but go beyond it youll have problems if you didnt before.

lets see. there is a guy on here billiumss that does tuning very resonable. BUt i dont know if he has the software for gto's. livernoismotorsports isnt to far from you. they also do good FI tuning
