Started the H/C change
I have been reading info on this forum for years so hear is my first post.
I have a old school procharger set up with a p1sc and 3.5 pully.
It made 470rwhp 450rwtq. I put the RPM A4 built diff and vig three disc stall before going any futher.
I am putting a set of MTI stage 2 241 heads ported 78 fast and throtlebody and a thunder racing blower cam 214/230 on a 117lsa for a sleeper package.
What kind of power yall think I will acheive with the xtra help staying same boost no meth. Starting install tonight!
I was also wondering what would be your next upgrade.
Thank yall for the help

I would guess that your next upgrades will be a built tranny and brace along with some better rear tires.

My modest 346 w/ very few engine mods does not get great off the line traction and I have 335 / 20 PS2's.
My guess is you'll need a 305/18 or wider drag radial to put down the kind of power you have and hook well.

Forged bottom end....
In fact, I would have done that before the H/C upgrade, but I'm a wuss.
Mine is pushing about the same HP & torque numbers as yours with my A&A V3. I'm not taking any chances with my 97 LS1 motor. I'm going to upgrade to a Level V tranny this winter, then as soon as financially possible after that I am going to do a forged bottom end at the same time as a FI friendly H/C upgrade. That may be a ways down the road....
