Default Procharger Kit

Looking at a Procharger kit for my 2014 RCSB 5.3L.

I have a couple of questions...
1) Can someone explain front vs rear air inlet? Pros/cons? Pics?
2) I plan on cam, head porting, 6.2L TB, E85, LT4 injectors & pump. Upgrading to a D-1SC head have any value or too much with this setup?

1. thats an expression for the PD blowers that sit atop the motor. Has nothing to do with procharger.

2. Sounds like a great set up.

This is off Procharger's website...
Option of rear or front-facing air inlet

Not really sure that is supposed to be written there. Normally they refer to the blowers that inlet toward the front, a reverse rotation unit. These are normally for corvette setup due to the space.

Giving an option of rotation (or air inlet as they want to call it) is not likely as it would require a completely re-engineered bracket set up.

**There is a possibility that I'm just not aware of something so I could be talking out my ***. Call them and ask them what that specific bullet point means in the ad and report back.

Maybe it's just their tube that does a 180 and faces the filter forward.

I called them today (good tip BTW ) and they said as 03sierraslt said. It's just the orientation of the air filter.

I've got a single side RX catch can. Will that be good enough or will I need to do something different?

Also, I assume I'll need to pin my crank. Should I get an SFI-rated damper?

I have been trying to find out for certain but I believe the DI's are keyed? Anyone know absolutely for sure? If not I need to pin mine too!
