What's up, nice site you guys have here. I'll try and keep this as short as possible. I have a 57 Chevy with a roots blown smallblock that I've been thinking about switching to a blow thru carb set up. I'm currently running a 385, 4.040x3.75, smallblock with a 4-71 single carb blower and a alcohol dominator. The pistons that I'm running are SRP blower pistons that list as 9.8 compression with a 64cc head, which is what I have. The block was decked a little so the compression might be a little higher than that. The car has ran 10.0's at 133 with little tuning and I feel it has a 9.80 in it still, but I would like to change it around where it would be more streetable. I've been looking at maybe getting a F1R set up with a intercooler. I'm guessing I have around 10.0 compression, how much boost could I run on pump gas/race gas if I go with a set up like this ??
Thanks in advance for the help and if you would like more details about the engine just ask.
Matt
