TorqStorm Supercharger build advice needed


All good points and things to think about. One caveat though. This will likely be a 200-230 hp engine on 6-8 psi. Heat is directly related to hp and load. He will be heavy with big tires but he does have steep gears. I think it could be done on a stock replacement type piston and 91 octane. Once again carefull tuning will be key.
Well, quick math says 4.56's w/35's~=3.82's w/29's, with a curb weight~3900#. IF He's not pulling a trailer, IF He doesn't decide He wants more & tosses a smaller pulley on the compressor, IF He doesn't stray far from Home & get a load of bad fuel, IF IF IF..... I'd still use forged slugs starting from scratch...
