Should I rebuild it or blow it (Test Thread)

[straightlinespeed]

I've got a 360 that is old and tired. Looking to race this truck. Should I rebuild the 360 for naturally aspirated or blow it? Money is not a issue.

P.S this is a test thread and yes money would be a issue

Test reply, I would put a med size blower on it and enjoy the free 75 to 100 HP. just me, it works great hear and even a good driver .

I was thinking this is a decent medium blower

 

[memike]

30 to 50 lb's will do

 

[memike]

But I myself likes 18 to 30 lb. blower.

i,d put twin hairdryers on it with a blower on top with a digital fuel injection unit. Should be good for 2000+ horse. And run on pump gas in 100 degree heat at 180* in traffic. I miss the join date in the avatar.

Can you actually open the hood without special equipment?

Vote cast for blown build !
as to the $ thing, certainly more than n/a builds...
However, no need (imho) to run out and buy NEW NEW NEW ($$$)
conversion parts, good core blowers & turbos can be had on the cheap.
As long as the housings are in decent rebuildable(sp?) shape parts are much less.

go big

Holy Crap!!! I bet that thing is a rush! Im guessing lift off hood

Me too ... just an internet picture tho .. not mine

I have tried the turbo design formulas before and got bogged down on air mass and flow. Could not find a good explanation for the delina. Anyway both work great when properly installed. In the end it is the look that counts.
