paxton blowers on lt1's?.

has anyone here ever used a paxton blower on there f body? i dont know much about them, i was planning on buying a vortech but locally a paxton lt1 kit came up for really cheap and id like to know if anyone has some insight,

the blower in question is the 1200, its the polished version and looks real tight and lightly used. it has the oil feed line similar to the older vortec blowers. my main concern is that this blower might not be able to support the power im looking to make. the combo is a relatively mild 355 with loyd elliot heads and id like to make 500 at the wheels at under 10 pounds of boost. anyone got an idea of this things limits?

can anyone point me in the right direction here?? this seems like a good deal i just dont wanna buy a piece of junk

paxton blower is more than enough for the motor you're building. its not like this car will ever actually see 11s anyway
