Default Maggie MP112 on LS3

I have A MP112 C5 Corvette Maggie currently installed on my SLP 402 (low Compression) Engine. I broke the crankshaft and am considering purchasing a LS3 (427) stroker short block as a replacement. Is there any thing I should be concerned about with the MP112 install on this engine ??

Time to upgrade. TVS2300 if you want to keep the Magnuson style blower.

Edelbrock has their new kit also.

That blower is too small and too inefficient to put on that large motor IMO. Although there is only a small change in displacement, there will be a huge difference in performance when changing from a 3 to 4-lobe rotor and increasing the helix from 60 to 160° Any blower with the TVS2300 rotors would be a good choice if you're wanting to stay in the roots category.

Used Maggies really hold their value in comparison to other kits out there... You should be able to sell/recoup a lot of the upgrade expense.

The TVS blowers are insane.

if you want to make real power time and time again. A/A YSI unit or a TTIX set up. But if you want the rotors look at the TVS2300.
