PSI 206B....
So how do you like that set-up? Is it streetable with the carbs?
Some more details about that combo would be great..
It's a 526 4.310 x 4.500 w/KB block and Stage V big valve heads, TD/Barton rockers. The mistake I made was not having PSI cut the bottom of the blower bigger to hold less boost in the case. If I keep the car, I'm going to send the blower back for a bigger cut so I can drive the blower slower and use pumpgas for street driving.
It made 1629hp @8000rpm, just touching 20lbs and even in this configuration, it's pretty easy to putt around. It's just expensive to burn C-16. With the small cut, the discharge temp in the manifold climbs when going slow, or stopped at a light. It drops as you drive and the harder you hit it, the cooler it gets. Just opposite of a roots.
After talking with PSI, we'll probably redo a couple things and knock it down to the 1200hp range for street driving on 93, then swap pulleys, retune the carbs and drive it to 30lbs with C-16 and see how much we can make.
Unless I sell the car and turn my Dart (superstock style chassis) into a grudge deal.
