dyers makes the 6-71 and the 8-71 sytle blowers for pretty much any application. also they sell different top plates for dual or single carb applications. (two holley 390's would be sweet up there)

the 8-71 moves more volume of air per revolution, which means it works less to provide the same amount of air as 6-71, which also means potential for more boost.

basicly 6-10 lbs a 6-71 is the way to go, if you want 10-14 lbs you want a 8-71. also i believe each model is capable of making more boost than i listed but it gives a good idea where you wanna be.

running something like that, you wanna start with dished pistons in the 8.0-8.5:1 range.
