Heres my angle. Ive debated turbo/super charger for about the last few years.
I just helped a friend fix 3 cracked pistons. He was running a 1991 5.0 forged pistons,bla, bla , bla, and 12lbs of boost. 457 RWHP. Now, he originally spent around 3500 to get the supercharger on and dyno'd. For about that money you can buy a built motor with no charger and have one hellava motor, without the stress. Still yet, I figured run a 6lb charger. But I'd still be out alot of money that could have been spent on a sweet longblock. My conclusion was to save some money for a built 5.0 running fuel injection and not worrying about the side effects of the charger.
