Default Which engine combo ???

I want to do something crazy with my 2000 Camaro SS. The three choices I am pondering over are a 422ci stroker from MTI, a 414ci with a procharger supercharger, or a 404 ci with a turbocharger. I know they all have their pros and cons but any suggestions would be appreciated.

Go w/ the stroker motor if you want to be a sleeper!

or

Go w/ the super if you want to be a rustang!

or

Gow/ the turbo if you want to be a ricer!

Nah, I'm just kidding, If I had that kind of money to spend I would go w/ the stroker engine regardless of what the other engines can put @ the rear wheels. Why? You ask. Simple, anytime you open the hood, what are people going to see first? The turbo or super!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Going all N/A is best you can do. That's my .02 cents.

Oh, remember to upgrade suspension, rear end, and tranny and other misc. items! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

I was thinking the turbo was a bit onb the ricer side myself but it does make some incredible horsepower.

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> it's not rice unless you have a big wing <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> horse power is horse power no matter how you get it. go with the best combo for the type of racing that you will be doing.
