^This.

I have still yet to see a GM car with a PD blower not originally equipped with a PD blower meet or exceed my expectations for it. I'm sure there might be a couple out there on the webs doe

What brand sc is recommended? I called Pat G in Victoria Tx and it's what he swears by. I am honestly clueless on fi on lt's seems like a lot of the other shops around me are not knowledgeable on these as well. What do you think about an lt4 blower with stock cam?

I'm shocked Pat G recommended that blower.

That being said, I have no clue what blower works well on the 6G as I don't own one with a blower and not many results with them. I can tell you many vendors make more margin on PD blowers usually though. Centrifugal blowers seem to work the best on LS2/LS3

Yeah I wanna go f.i bc there are no super gains on cams thus far. Idk what to do as of now. Lt1's are definitely not as mod friendly as ls.

E85 is a very nice mod on them and will continue to be

D1SC with a proper intercooler setup + methanol would be the sex. Can skip methanol with e85 and some LT4 injectors.. FI cam with big fuel lobe.

None of the new stuff is as mod friendly NA as the older LS stuff...that goes for LT1, Coyote, and Hemi. Everything is much more optimized from the factory these days which is a good thing. I would rather have factory parts that make the powah over junk aftermarket. Better off to go straight to boost these days.

Yeah this is what I'm finding out. I am tempted to just say **** it and toss on a blower but I am worried about my bottom end. Thing is it is in the shop as we speak and I am nowhere near ready and am frustrating everyone at the shop bc I have no clue what I want to do. First thought was cam and headers and exhaust. They are telling me not to look for incredible gains from this bc the on the market cams are very limited and not doing a Hell of a lot. Next was a Maggie but now I'm challenged there as well bc how long can I logically beat on it (my dd) before it blows? I definitely don't wanna leave it stock but I'm out of ideas for now and on a budget too.

Centri or twin turbos. I wouldn't worry about the bottom end. I'm not sure if you can make enough power on the fuel systems that's available to exceed the bottom end yet.

Have tto agree here. You will probably be fine bottom end wise. Meth can add some safety and more fuel if needed. Its all in the tune.
