H/C/I with a supercharger until you blow that MF'er. Then get a different block and do it again!!! (but don't blow it this time)

^^ Thats what I was thinking. I think Im just going to get a block and build it in my garage on my spare time. When its done I will drop it in (and there will be no rush because the motor I have in my 93 now runs like a dream but it just has like 90K on it). Drop it in there and than do a nice h/c/i.

What kind of heads should I get?
What size throttle body?
What size MAF?
Should I get longtube headers?
How many ponies can I make with this combo?
What size gears should I get?
Whats better... track heat or street heat manifold?
What size injectors?
Can I run NOS?























hahah JP! JP!

Well, I have 90K NOW. By the time I finish my suspension I might have 95K. By the time I get my H/C/I I might have 110K and by the time I get a blower I might have 130K. Thats how Im thinking about it.

Either way, I think a 331 will be my best option anyway .... whats your opinion on that.
