Is a supercharger worth it w/my current mods??
Is a supercharger worth it w/my current mods??
I've got a buddy who has a brand new Powerdyne 6lb kit that he decided not to install, so I could pick it up for a pretty good price. I know nothing about superchargers, so with my current setup would I see good gains, and how reliable will it be with the currents mods on my car? Will I need a rebuild shortly after? Also, what other parts would I need to add to get the best results? Currently, my car is running 10.75:1 compression with the following mods:
ENGINE
*Factory GM short-block with 4,500 miles (valve reliefs cut should you want to go bigger with camshaft)
*Federal Mogul Camshaft, Main, and Rod Bearings
*Total Seal Piston Rings
*ARP Pro-Series Connecting Rod Bolts
*TSP Ported LS6 Oil Pump
*Rollmaster Adjustable Double-Roller Heat-Treated Timing Set with Torrington Bearing
*TSP 231/231, .598"/.598", 112 LSA Camshaft
*CNC-ported LS1 Cylinder Heads with 2.02"/1.57" Valves, Dual Valve Springs, Titanium Retainers (Setup with Pump-gas Friendly 10.75:1 Compression Ratio)

*New SLP Take-Out Differential
*Ratech Deluxe Rebuild Kit
*New GM Axles
