for the money edelbrock wants for those kits i'd go vortech or pro-charger...i like pro chargers because they are self contained however they run a bit hotter than a vortech unit if they arent intercooled

The problem is with a Procharger (that would be my first choice as well), I have a Quickflow Tech. carb and they said to make it into a blow through carb would be around 500$ and they said that the vacuum ports would be taken out of the carb. So then i would have to also buy a vacuum booster for the brakes. It sounds like it would be over anuther grand to run a centrufugal supercharger. So i guess i am trying to mininize all the things that has to be done which in turn makes it not so expensive. I think the D1 PRocharger kit can be had for around 3600$ last time i checked.

Yeah it would be going in my 1974 chevy stepside with the new 355. I am concerned tho how big of a problem i will have with traction. I plan on running a streetable 8 to 10 lbs of boost. The thing is I have 4.10 gearing with the th700r4 tranny. 1st gear is really low! I am running a 29 inch mickeys by 14 inch wide. Is there anyone here that thinks i should re gear or just go with a bigger and stickier tire???? thanks all
