Another how much power?
Last year made 730 whp on a p1sc on a old a and a bracket that slipped bad at 6300 rpm. W a ported fast
Just bought a procharger f1d and looking forward to bolting her on.
What can I expect from this blower?
Combo. Forged 346 and new this year, ported Vic jr w Arron's elbow, new a and a 8 rib, Dallas performance dd, 8 in or iw balancer and Procharger f1d.

Need more info. How many rpms are you going to spin the engine and the F1d? How many cfm is the F1 rated at and what camshaft are you using?
Edit: I went ahead and read up on the F1-D. If you are able to set everything up correctly and get results similar to what you got with the P-1SC, I predict about 880 rwhp. Why didn't you choose the F1 or F1-A?

You need to provide many more details for an accurate guess. How much PSI are you going to run?
Not all 346's are created equal. What cam? Pistons? Heads? Compression? How many RPM's are you taking the motor to? Tranny an Auto or Manual and is it built? Rear end built? Exhaust?
Tell us about your build!
If you want a stab in the dark guess...I would think that any F1 blower would be enough for 800+RWHP...but that is literally the only reasonable guess that can be made with the information you have provided.

Cam 228 232 595 574 114 Lsa. Patriot ls6 style portrd heads,Fully forged 346 set up for boost w dished pistons but still mid 10.7 comp. e85 like to go 7000 rpm, mn6 stock geared, full rkt56 drivetrain w McLeod rxt, alum flywheel, Borla zr1 with TPIS 1 3/4 long tube headers.
With the 8 in lower even with putting on 4.5 in upper I'm looking at 67200 impeller rpm.
This blower was designed for more mid to low tq. It has the f1 housing w a d1sc impeller. Procharger rates them at 1000 hp on their site.
My thought is I'm gonna have a hard time getting it under 900 whp. I'd like to try and get closer to 800 to make sure the ls1 block can handle the power.

Hard time getting it UNDER 900rwhp? LOL.. Good luck..
You'll likely be 800-850rwhp... Depending on how hard you spin it...
Mine worked pretty hard to hit 900hp SAE and that was on a 402/f1r spinning 68k rpms.. Depends how much timing is in it too..

Honestly I'm hoping to be closer to the 800-850 mark. Last year I did 730 w a p1sc so it's hard for me to believe I won't be closer to the 900 whp going up 2 steps.

I am interested to see how that blower works for you.
It should be pretty responsive.
Have you budgeted for the new block yet?

No, street tuned. We started w a 2.75 restrictor in a 4 in a and a dongle. It made 15 psi at 5500 and flat lined to 14.5 at 6600. We put the 3 in in and it made 18 psi strong to 6600. Looks like I need another pump now. A 340 intank and a o44 is not enough on e85

I'm quite curious to see what power you're making at 18 psi.. E85 will help a lot.
