Have a look at a BM 144, 162, 174 (or holley) as i had one on a 308 in a LH in the 90's. It was best motor that i had/ built and i had a few different set up's in it. Cost alot to set up but once i did it the best thing i ever did for a steet car. Once we got it to work it was very steetable unless you are willing to put up with a 5000 stall 12to1 a pig of an idle and just a car that you can't use as you get rid all this and will get a motor that will do the same with 8to1 2800 stall or smaller and a very good idle will run on pump ulp fuel will last longer as no boost no power as most of the time it's driven it is not under boost so its on 8to1 comp instead of 12to1 all the time. You cant /will not bet boost cheap power in the long term once you have a blower you will never go back.That was said to me before i had one now i say it and want to put blower on everthing i can as they make more power for the money.
