RE: KB vs. vortech
i like my vortech, im making 397rwhp at 10psi. my blower makes boost really really quick. once i hit about 3000 rpms its like light speed. its nutz. i luv KBs but i just couldnt afford one, you gotta luv that instant hp that the KB offers though.

While instant boost may be nice, it also has other effects. You need a higher gearing, since 410's will just have you spinning in place withall that low end torque. Not to mention fuel mileage. With a centri, if you keep it below 3k rpms your mileage isnt effected much at all. With instant boost, your KILLING your MPG.

I have a 2.1, and at 9psi, I'm hitting 427 as of my last dyno run. I remember Stanggang saying he has a 1.7 that he got a heck of a deal on.
You can get a 2.1 with a 6# pulley if you want. You can run a 6-14lbs, and can pick what you want when you buy it.
