I am trying to get my setup complete before we do final tuning. If I cant get there with this I have about another 5,000 rpm on the blower, meth, or a small shot. I would like to get there with this though. To get that last 5,000rpm I would have to change the crank pulley and that is $450.00.

Yes.But I would raise the compression to 9.5-1 and dump the aeromotive pump(too loud)

Yes it is... and yes the aeromotive is ridiculously loud. however, at wot there is absolutely no pressure drop. Think it will get me there? My motor has already been completed. I am in breakin right now. I wanted to stay a little on the safe side...

Jesus, I hope you would make 600!

I made 653 on my stock 347 with only 10 psi through a T76gts. Had out-of-the-box patriot heads and a mid size cam.

LOL...Damn I hope so too!! The only part of my build that I think may keep me away from 600 is my compression.

The closest one we have to your set-up is making 757 rwhp with 16 psi of boost.

Any other takers? hey real quick...What would help the most another 3-4psi of boost(maxing D1SC rpm) or methanol/ethanol injection?

Another 3 to 4 psi of boost would make the most. Now if you combined the added boost with methanol, and added back in some of the timing that was removed, you'd really add a boatload of power! Bob
