I like the Superram setup which allows you to reuse your fuel rail and exposes the schraeder valve to check fuel pressure. Plus the fuel pressure regulator is easy to get to if you have to change it or adjust it if you get the AFPR. Not sure about the others.

I have been very happy with my Superram. I would rebuild your 700 if that is what you have. That will stand up to the 383 if done right and you will have overdrive which is nice. Before you go with the SC, I would do heads and cams first. Something like AFR 190s or 195s will be good.

You can buy an LT1 for really cheap, and they're pretty good.

check that out, $400 gets you ready to bolt it in.

my vote is for the miniram or superram depending on the needs and budget. i have a miniram so i should be biased but i don't think too highly of tpis at all so i wouldn't get it again. for ease of use and power the miniram works very very well though.
