that's correct.....not many used ones around.......What about running a stock longblock; change cam and springs; headers/exhaust; and then run it hard until it pops

It's time to switch up the projects alittle. This next project isn't going to be a daily driver just something to go out and blow the doors off whatever wants to try.

Would I be able to reach my HP goal with a 370 and TVS1900? I didn't think the 1900 would build enough boost

Even with a 2300, 600 wheel hp through a truck drive train isn't going to be real easily done. You're going to probably need a good set of heads (ported 243/317's or stock LS3's), blower cam, good intake, and free flowing exhaust.

I pushed about that with a 1900 on a high compression 408. with the 2.8" pulley it made about 7lbs of boost. Basically stock 317 heads, good exhaust, blower cam. That is basically maxing out the blower though, you would have much more room to grow with the 2300.
