From what I've read, I shouldn't be far off 500HP N/A with my engine combo. If B&H is right with their value of 24+HP per PSI of boost, then that's another 360+HP
 I'm skeptical - maybe someone with a bit more knowledge can have a go at guessing numbers for me.So even if that is right.. 860HP

 Not sure what boost that's on - also not sure what the FMS Crate engine they're using puts out as stock - but it's probably only doing 50-100HP over what I'd expect N/A.

That's an engine dyno result from a 363 N/A Crate Engine from my builder..

Looking good. I cannot imagine what such a curve would be like with your anticpated boost.
Excuse my lack of knowledge in the area, but does a 363 utilise a 302 block? I have heard of plenty of 347s that comprimise the block with their longer stroke and bore increase. How does that work with a 363? Stu

Dart offers the 8.2" SBF block with 4.125" Bore (or 4.000" bore.. but why would you?!) 347 assumes 4.030" from memory.

I am so looking forward to seeing this build. OK I am an LTD softy! Tough grandpa cars are the go. "Sorry officer, I didn't realise the car would go that fast!" Long live the Grandpa Spec! Brembos and all!

Ah, with the money that's being spent so far a bit more for the diff isn't a big deal to make it all right. But, we'll wait and see how it copes. I'm assuming launching it down the quarter mile a hundred times is more likely to break it than some spirited street driving.

Yeah, I can't say that I haven't used this on a few occasions with great success Rollin on 20's might give the Grandpa spec away! Ok, those brake cookers you call wheels might hide the Brembos, but deep down you know it is a Grandpa car! Love it!

Besides.. think horse and cart - those wheels are WAY bigger. Been there, done that - fashion goes in circles.

Well I just spent almost 2 hours on the phone to Lawrence at B&H Superchargers chatting about his product, among other things. He's very helpful, honest and easy going. Best of all, he's an Aussie expat - so he's somewhat familiar with our Falcons here. He even spent some time with d**k Johnston Motorsport back in the 90's!
So we're just tossing up between the 1900 and 2300 blower and awaiting some more details photos of the manifolds. This really does look like the better option over the Kenne Bell. Decision time early next week, stay tuned!

Lawrence was actually saying the 1900 is fine up to 400cui - but after explaining in a bit more detail the setup of my new engine he started leaning back towards the 2300.
His only word to describe the 2300 vs the 1900 was "brutal"
