Re: newbi saying hi

Welcome! Sounds like a fun setup for the new engine. A Vortec blower would be fun but I'd would be sure to build the new engine to achieve a lower compression ratio since it has iron heads and it sounds like this is a daily driven pump gas combo. Going to aluminum heads, a dedicated blower camshaft, and forged pistons would get you into a safer zone. I'd do a 750 or 850 carb also on a Vic Jr. intake but thats me giving my opinion when it wasn't asked for.

Again, Welcome!

It's possible you get a vote for longest sentence...ever.
