I guess it's time for me to get off my duff and build an engine. I have been looking at 426 hemi stroker kits for my 6.4 block.

I think after the car is together for a while I may want to do something like a procharger. I have two questions:

How high of a compression ratio can I run with a Procharger?

Can I run a nasty cam and a procharger together? I don't want to have to tear the engine down to change compression and cam if I don't have to.

Thanks for any help. If you need further info just ask.

Are you going to gap the rings like its a boosted engine right from the get go?

You could probably get away with 10-1.

Nasty cam? Idk

What are your plans

If it was me I'd build it as a solid 9.0:1 short block
Or around that area building it for the future use of boost

What type of fuel system. Injection or carburetor
When you say nasty cam. You want power or sound?

Or a little bit of both. You should treat that type of blower as if it's a
Turbo really. But it will work with a "nasty" cam but do not expect the
Best hp/tq numbers from it

I can do the cam for it no problemo.
