9.5-1 comp
11 psi boost
92 octane

A little bit off topic, but do you think an F1R will make 18psi on a 470? I know boost numbers have a bunch of factors involved but if you have decent flowing heads and intake, 18psi is going to be probably 1100-1200 hp. I've raced several different model Prochargers, including an F1R, for a few years now so if it were me- I'd run copper head gaskets with SS o-rings. Also, get a custom cam - I'd call Bullet and give them every detail. Good choice going with a gear drive. Edit --Nevermind - you didn't actually say SCS geardrive.

I am not sure if an F1R can get to 18psi on 470 cubes....I can tell you the heads I am going to use only flow 325cfm and are on my current 400/512 making +700.....That engine needs better heads anyways, so I am going to use the EZ1's I have on this build. The plan is to start at 10psi with a side slinger procharger and spin it up and see where the power band lands. My goal is +1000hp or under 5.50 in the 1/8th, which I think it will do at 10psi....Later, I want to go to the gear drive, and set the engine back to fit it with the radiator. Move the firewall and probably redo the cage.

So based on what I know, 470 cube 400, 9:1 compression JE pistons, E85 fuel, and Cometic head gaskets. No intercooler or water/ meth.....EZ1 heads, steel rods, Thumper carb, billet main caps.....F1R....

What nobody has mentioned, is there are no blower cars in bracket races......Hmmmmm

so far my hemi has been at 21 lbs of boost with cometics and oliver rods and diamond pistons , every pound of boost is around 30 to 45 hp depending on the combo , im at 9.5 to one comp on c-16 fuel now to keep it safe i do not have a intercooler that will be a winter project , my 4000 lb car on street tires though the exhaust has been 130mph in the 1/8 and 160mph in the 1/4 on a base tune that made 1381 hp on the dyno at 18.9 lbs of boost , so far the water /meth injection does nothing !!! my air inlet temps are at 255 degrees !!! oh ya its fuel injected with 160 lb injectors and a fast xfi best thing ive done so far !!! and oh just for shits and giggles try to get some one to make a torque convertor for ya !! when i said 1400hp and a torqueflite they said we dont make one !!! and i called all the major co they said you will break your trans !!!! im testing that theory now

Awesome.....Any advice on my 470 build? Looks like all I need to hit 1000hp is 12psi......Cometic surprisingly said the same thing, I should be good till right around 20psi with no o-rings or anything else. Someone suggested E85 for mine, and I hadn't even thought of it at the time, but the more I thought about it, the more that made a lot of sense for me. Just trying to figure out the best static compression now.

I know the A&A trans parts work well. To what HP level, I have no idea, but we have upgraded a number of things with their parts, and have had only one issue and it was with the TA VB....It wasn't set to high enough pressure.
