We just finished a project just like that. It's a 382 with A&A supercharger setup. It has a P1SC on it witch is holding it back a little. But it goes sideways at 70 MPH. It made 600 rear wheel horse power, with good tourqe. I think it's a fun comb, and I don't care what the enginners say. Tourqe of a 382, with big power up top!!!

My personal two cents
Randy

What did the enginner say? A 383 isnt up to par for a blower?

What charger would you go with if not the P1SC?

I will chime in with my .02.....I think its a good set up if done properly. Get yourself at least a D1 if you are going procharger, It flows more air, and is better for the bigger cubes. There are 2 Supporting vendors here on this Forum that come to mind, and will be more than happy to help you out. A&A, and ECS. you might have better luck with this question over on the Forced induction area.
