If you are truly thinking about building for +1100 rwhp, I would either call RED about a big bore, Darton sleeved LS2 or look into an ERL Superdeck block.

From what I hear, the LSX blocks and RHS blocks can get the job done also. I've personally witnessed over 1200 rwhp on an LSX on the street.

What kind of information are you needing?

That's cool, information I need best heads to go with and best stroker kit also which one of the supercharges are better A&A or Procharger .. and is there any issues with the superchargers via over heated areas cause sometimes in summer we hit the 120F .. waiting for your replay sir.


Mubarak.

You probably need to take a look at 2 kits blower wise. ECS 2500, DP F1x. To hit 1100rwhp on a street car with blower car is not easy.

the F1X is n't available for C5 as I can see @ procharger website they only have the F1C kit in their own web. hit me with more details, btw I have seen Jordan's C5Z with LSX 427 and F1C on pump gas he reach the 916 @ 18PSI which is easy to hit the 1000HP with C16.

I'm not an expert, so just giving my opinion. My little 402 with a novi 1500 made 850 on 13-14psi on pump gas, so each setup is different. The tuners will chime in I'm sure.

that's a good thing you made up there but you know as it's my first build I would love to know many about the superchargers is there any issues with the novi? cause I have seen saw many cars with the A&A kits with a lot of issues haven't seen them in street only once a year so that I'm trying to stay away from A&A kit's!

Paxton=Vortech. Same company. The majority of blowers are close if not identical and a Paxton will fit a A&A bracket and a Vortech will fit an ECS bracket with exception to a couple. Both are top quality kits, I just prefer the ECS after owning each

What's wrong with the A&A kits?

FWIW-the FASTEST SUPERCHARGED CARS run A&A kits. Now if you would turn them into full "drag" cars they would probably be the quickest too.

Well crap. I guess my F1x is a C also.

I think what he is saying is Procharger does not sell a f1x kit for a Vette. You buy the X, buy a bracket and build your own kit. Cartek has a bracket that will spin the X with no issue

I think that's what he is saying too. Dallas performance also makes a bracket that works with the F1X and the F2. If you are going to run an aftermarket block might as well get a blower that matches it. If you look at all the stuff you have to buy to add on to a base kit to make 1100+rwhp you might as well go all out with a DP bracket and cog setup.
