F1a Procharger set-up HELP
F1a Procharger set-up HELP Ok guys this is what i am planning to build, a boost ready 346 at around 8.5 to 9 points of compression, boosted by a F1A procharger KIT with ETP 245 Heads. I am planning to run a VIctor Jr intake with a custom elbow and 90mm throttle body. My delema is what size headers should i go with, right now i have KOOKS 1 7/8 stepped to 2" headers that i am trying to sell because i'm thinking they are probaly to big. I am thinking either SLP Longtubes again or Kook 1 3/4 stepped to 1/78. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK.
My other delema is the cam profile.
I plan on running around 15 PSI of boost and am looking to see around 700RWHP.
Dont have much experience in the blower applications so your info is appreciated.
Thanks
Brian

Kooks 1 3/4 stepped to 1 7/8 would be what I would recommend over the SLP headers. You will make more power with the Kooks headers.
Heck, you can make well over 700 rwhp with any mild blower camshaft with the combination you are putting together. We use the Lingenfelter GT2-3 cam on a lot of our builds, as it has excellent driveability characteristics.

This is our blower cam, which makes really good power, and has a great musclecar idle sound to it. Bob

Raise the compression to 9.5-1
ET 225 heads
230's Cam
D1 Procharger.
The parts you have listed above on the list is for 900rwhp setups
You'll be alot happier with the smaller stuff. yeah if your in F1a territorry get some 2'' headers, 240cc heads 8.1CR(my opinion for pump gas) 230-240 duration 114lsa cam and a power glide tranny with a 9'' and 3.42 gears..... hmmmm im getting a wood thinking about that....
thats for a 408 or bigger...

With my old YSi blower setup, I hit 754rwhp thru an unlocked T400. I was using the Kooks 1&7/8-2.000 step headers with 3.5" collectors. I was told by 8 second mustang blower guys to run as big of a header as I could.

I'm goin with the Kooks 1 7/8 stepped to 2" also. Sittin in the box waiting to go in the car. I'm gonna be runnin bigger cubes tho. If you plan on running on the street often I would probably go with the 1 3/4" stepped to 1 7/8". You can still reach your HP goals with the smaller primaries. Track only go with the larger primaries IMO.

Headers yeah i was scared the headers were going to be to big, well i am getting a set of 6 liter heads worked, now it's deciding on valve size. 2.02, 2.05, or 2.08's
