then pulley down on a big rotor group & send it!
i just remember having a couple different discussions with guys at Magnuson when sorting out by build options, and they both told me to use the smallest one that meets my airflow goals so that it 1) uses less power to drive and 2) softens the hit on the driveline (reference the LSA vs LS9).
granted - at the time, my goals led them to recommend me using a 1900, but they would've had to custom-build me an upper manifold to use it instead of the new 2300 kit they'd recently released. i chose the 2300 as a compromise - and now that my goals went through the roof, am glad i did.

it's been 'major' for the last few years 
and i wasn't claiming to be righter than anybody... simply expressing my opinion on why a 3100cc rotor set might be a little excessive (until you're spinning a big-cube motor to high rpm). for instance, in daily driving my 2300 & trying to have some sort of civil gas mileage, i almost have to drive like a grandpa to keep it out of boost... so from a practicality standpoint, i'd think a 2300 would be a decent fit for a 6.x L engine that ain't trying to go *****-to-the-wall.

gas mileage? TVS 2300?

What's your displacement? With my 5.3 I got 14mpgs, that wasn't so bad.
