Default vic jr on 370

im lookign at possibly adding a vic jr on my new 370 motor. the rason im looking into the vic jr is because of cost and also i need something with new larger fuel rail to support a new fuel system. im going to have a new intake elbow made for it so i can mount a 90 mm tb on it and keep the same mounting spots as the truck intake manifold since my vortech boost tube is right above the tb on the track intake. i want to know how well it will work on a 370? i know they are meant for a larger cube motors but since im going to be flowing more air than a big cube (15 psi) i figure it might help not to mention distribute air better than my truck intake. im just wondering how much low end will i lose due to the shorter intake runners? any thoughts?

it should look similar to this

I think it would work great, especially with the boost.

You might loose some daily driver torque, but not much. Mostly the Vic Jr's range rating is based on a carb setup. For EFI, the lower range goes to 1400rpm or something like that.

I think with the amount of boost you are wanting to run it is insurance against killing #7. I am going to be doing one on the 370 I am getting ready to build for the new turbo setup.
