Ok i have had a change of thought im not building the dart block after all i want to build a dss racing 306 super pro bullet short block with all forged stuff i now the question i have is should i go with AFR 185 heads for a supercharger if not what would be the best heads to go with? And i want to know what intake i should run with this? This is a very hard choice for me,and another thing is what supercharger should i go with this setup,I want 450rwhp - 550 rwhp what will get me there the best? And what size injectors and gears should i run with this? Oh yeah and another thing is this 87' GT is an auto.

DSS will put a matched package together for you, including heads and intake, and they do a good job... Trust me... The only problem is $$$$...

RE: Change Of Thought
Well the first thing is that if you plan on making that much HP I would go with a 331. Its going to be pretty darn hard to make 500rwhp with a 306.. even with a blower. Also, I would not recommend taking that block past 550. DSS does fully prep all of their blocks etc. but its still a stock block and they are weak. Also, I would go with AFR 185's over the 165's in a heartbeat. Especially considering the power that you are looking for. But I do not think you will make power w/ a 306. Just My .02

RE: Change Of Thought
I dont know but i run high compression with my 306 from d.s.s 10:1. Im going to get dynoed this year but im not near 500rwhp. I will say i have sprayed a 200shot on my block and it holds up....i rebuild every year..its maintnence that will help
What i was getting at was that the stock block is not that weak...its weak but not that weak

RE: Change Of Thought
I honestly wouldnt try to run 550rwhp on that block. Also, like I said, a 306 w/ a blower. I dont think you will be anywhere near 550rwhp so I dont think you have to worry anyway.
