Default Supercharger advice

I have a c6z and wanting to throw a blower on it. Everything on the car is stock. Just wanting advice if the heads need addressed and if so what valves and all that jazz. Thank you

Yes heads need to be done either way.

For a blower I would run a quality dual spring and solid SS or inconel exhaust valve to deal with the extra heat.

Would 600rwhp be conservative?

600 would be easy and conservative.

I made 611 on a Mustang Dyno with a base A&A kit (Ti Trim) with no other mods other than addressing the valve issues. 600 is very easy to do and the car will drive like stock until you get on it. Hopefully, you get the proper tires before boosting it.

Good. Put the money towards a clutch, if you plan to run it hard, or cam, meth, and/or headers depending on your goals. If you just want a reliable, fast street car then just do the base kit and be done. Good luck with the build.

The tires were an excellent choice. I can't express enough to my customers how much difference those tires will make.
BTW: I have a Ti Trim kit on sale if you want to save a few bucks. (actually a LOT of bucks)

I currently have an A&A V3si kit on my C6Z and just the kit with long tube headers made 642 rear wheel @ 6psi, I went down 1 pulley size, a mild cam and meth, now it's at 756 rear wheel @ 8 psi. Drives like stock with a nice little cam rumble. 600 rear wheel is extremely easy to attain with absolutely no drivability issues. I would highly recommend the A&A kit, very well designed and looks the absolute best IMO.

Is your car manual or auto? And this is a Si trim?
