I'm a fan of NA, Blowers and FI provide too many headaches for my liking.

I say you go with a forged LS3 418 with a mild cam....you can easly save $4K with a built short block from a reputable shop and assemble yourself a great set of LS3 cnc heads and make great power....My last LS3 Engine made 532 rwhp and still holding strong in a 95 Nissan 240SX.....If you need info on a engine builder PM for details....No need to drop $15K on a engine if you can duplicate it for $9K-10K for the same results.

Guys, the reason I'm even considering the supercharged LSx 376 is because I fell in love with this engine that Greg Weld had to put into his 62. There is no denying the beauty of this supercharged look.

That's the 700hp silver bullet right there Marcus!

Factory all the way (well not really buy you know what I mean) - reliable - simple... tons of bottom end. Runs smooth... good cruising fuel milage. What's not to like?

Yep Greg, I've been staring at those pics ever since you posted them.
