Blown and forged 347 I'm looking to go into the FI route a lot sooner that I had initially planned, reason being, I may just end up having enough money for it come the end of next summer. I want to go with a forged setup to have more room to play with in the future. I'm pretty sure I want to stay close to stock cubes. After getting my car set up for FI I will be pondering what exactly to run with. I want to blow it but I don't exactly know what setup would be the best. If I go ATI and want to make about 550 RWHP on pump gas what would some of you recommend? I am going to do some early research before I go into this so I know what to expect and get what I want out of this. Thanks
I wouldnt do a blower at all............. thats coming from a ATI guy. Do a turbo. Pro Turbo Kit has a kit coming out and you can make 550 stock motor on prob 5 psi and way more TQ then 550. Ill be doing there kit if i cant reach my goals with this kit.

I have the exact same opinion, the ati is a good kit and all, but i forsee turbo in my future. 600 is definitely doable, you just have to have a good pulley system and a good fuel system. If I'm missing anything else, someone will chime in.

Thanks for the replies, guys. But I will still go with a blower first. After some more time in the FI scene I plan on building a very stout turbo setup. This would involve a new and larger displacement engine.
