Please Don't
Lets not get into this again. This is how the last thread got out of hand. Lets just wait and see the numbers when they're here.

I agree. We need to wait and see for sure, but the pistons are only rated to 400 crank HP. Granted the twin screw will free up quite a bit of power which might give us a little more room to play. I can't wait to find out.

If the SC takes less to turn, you will be able to get more hp with no more strain on the pistons.

Would love to see gains of 40+ whp just from a swap! 
Anyone estimating on what kind of gains we will see? Will the GM stage kits work with it? I guess only time will tell...I thank your right however the stock gasket should be fine up to 400hp. Anyways from what I have read time and time again the stock gasket it not the problem. Its the studs. So a forged bottom end, and eagle head studs should do the trick. I heard the cometic head gasket is the same thing as the stock gm gasket. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Actually, I'm seeing that the stock head gaskets are blowing right around 300, but it could also be the head studs causing the issue. I know 300 seems to be the magic number lately for the blown head gaskets though..

I found some comparison specs on whipple blowers. The W75AX stacks up nicely.
Look at the Liters to psi ratio for all the blowers. Sweet.

Not sure on valve springs. He already installed the Bate's Titanium spring set. He is currently running a 2.5 pulley, custom header (he made himself), through muffler (not sure which one) and a 100 shot of nitrous. Said he dynoed 343. I would think that he also upgraded the head gasket and head studs when he swapped cams. He took them back out be cause the cam sensor was off and it was giving him a CEL.
