too much for stock block

stanger9219 · 11-03-2003, 07:19 PM

would a heads/cam/intake combo along with a supercharger be too much for the stock block to handle? Im thinking waaaayyyy into the future but just want to get an idea. Also, would the combo and sc be too much for the injectors and what else would i have to upgrade?

you left out a lot of needed info.

stick/auto?
miles?
stock lower end?
type of sc?
how much boost?
what h/c/i?

you will definitely need bigger injectors for all that stuff!

5-speed,
63, 000 miles,
whole car is fairly stock,
Paxton Novi/1000,
not sure about the boost,
Trick flow twisted wedge heads and the street EFI intake, not sure what cam i should get.

the stock block will easily handle that power. id go with some 30# injectors now and 36# - 42# later with the SC! if your interested i might be selling my 42#ers w/ matching mass air meter soon. not sure though, let me know

That is basically the setup I currently have on my car.
S-trim + TFS heads/cam/intake all on stock block.

Makes a conservative 425rwhp, and will do full throttle on/off for 20 MINUTES (not just 10 seconds) at at time on a roadcourse. See my homepage.

Stanger, if you are considering the Novi 1000, you may want to check out this site: http://www.superchargerhelp.com/ Scroll down to the Novi 1000 section. A lot of good information there on the blower.

Ever thought of going turbo?!

stanger9219 · 11-06-2003, 11:20 PM

Thanks for the help guys...and yes i have thought of going the turbo route but it cost a lot more than the supercharger and money is an issue. Although it would be cool to say i have a turbo charged mustang.
