I currently run a 413 smallblock which I am planning to convert to Procharger horsepower. I need someone to correspond with during this transition so I don't waste money heading the wrong direction. I have a lot of good parts to make a hi-horsepower smallblock.

Anyone willing to correspond and help me get this done??

I believe ProStDodge ran one for awhile. I don't know of too many Mopar guys that have ventured into the ProChargers but I'd sure like to have one.

not sure what you are needing to know? don't have any experience with small block mopars but know my way around my setup. If it is at all possible i would highly recommend the supercharger stores geardrive if you plan on making any type of power, alot more friendly on crankshafts. there pretty basic when you break it all down, the hardest part is the initial money and actually getting it all to fit in a given area.

Bigtime just finished up the install in his dart so he may have some good advice too

I didn't know he was going that route, but if he has it will probably be pretty stout. I would like to hear the details also. I am considering a procharger also so I am interested.

Ok whatever i can do to help out. Just want to put this out there now, It is not cheap to build a strong combo like this but it is rewarding.

I ran a D-1 head unit, made my own brackets, used a cog belt drive. At 188% over-driven I made 13psi in a 500 cid 505hp Mopar crate motor with KB cast pistons - over 730hp with alcohol.

Yes on the geardrive. You will need an inner cooler if using gasoline. Fuel injection is the best way to go IMO. Use Motec or BigStuff3 controller. You need to make yourself more clear on your intentions.

I am in the build process.
I went Fuel injection right away to help meter the fuel for a street strip combo

I was on the passenger side but but switching to drivers side for a bit more room

Some note and Thoughts Note I am a novice and I am learning from my one mistakes and those of others
I have been working with The Stig Jr (moparts member) He has more experience and his stock looking Road Runner is fast
Fuel
From what I have seen, fuel metering is critical. It is difficult to meter a street strip blow thru application with a carb that is designed to operate on vacuum... but it certainly able to be done an many have done it successfully.
I went to EFI to meter it better and easily build a conservative fuel and timing curve and them.
Have enough fuel system to supply. It appear easy to build boost, you just need the fuel system to support to feed it.

Have a good to ignition system. You will need decent spark.

Heat is your enemy. Piston coating seem to work well and protect the engine a bit.
Water/Meth injection and or an intercooler will help cool the air that gets HEATED by the procharger.

I hear differing stories on compression. Many state the standard rule of lowering compression and running your boost. Some have bolted a procharger on a 10.5 compression engine and ran VERY well. There is a local guy who did this with a small block demon (10-1 I think). The power impressed/scared him. No long term report good or bad on this plan as far as engine longevity.
