I guess I'm the minority here. After using forced induction for over 100k miles I can say that it's generally a pain in the a** on reliability and tuning. In addition, turbos are more complex than blowers because of the tremendous amount of underhood heat that needs to be dealt with. Besides, you won't be stressing a windsor block at 500+ hp, but that is a threshold for the 302 block. I guess it depends on what you are looking for.
