There is alot or room for improvement while still maintaining excellent drivability. This is comming from a conservative person too. I think a tr224 in a 6.0 is too big. (for where I want the power to be )

you can have all of the above brother! Get some WCCH 5.3 specific Heads, a LPE GT2-3 or a WCCH Spec'd Cam (i.e. high torque, very crisp throttle response), a Good Tune and you will gain a lot of power, pass emissions, and have stock drive-ability! and that's no BS

thanks, i will call him on tuesday and get more information, i just finished reading your build and i have couple of question for you, who is tuning your supercharger for you. Are you concern with amount of heat that particular charger will produce on a hot day.

Not one day of driveability issues with my LPE GT2-3 cam. The MangaCharger LOVES this cam BTW. If you are looking to do the heads, Richard at WCCH will have you covered.....I love my stage 2 WCCH heads with my FI.

I have a couple of friends that tune that will help me out in the calibration department. As for the 122H on a hot day, I'm not concerned in the least, it's more efficient than the one it's replacing and I had no issue's with it what-so-ever, even hot lapping at the dragstrip in 90+ degree weather
