    4.3L blower at 6psi boost, on top of a high compression 8.4L V10, should likely make 900 hp (800 rwhp) without much issue.

    Paxton on a stock Gen 3 at kit level low boost = adds 200 rwhp

    Even my 2.3L Magnacharger on the 7.0L Z06 added 170 rwhp at 6psi. Tiny blower, smaller engine.

    Just examples. I would think a 4.3L blower would easily add 250 rwhp at 6psi.

    Good to know I thought it would take more boost to get there. I'll see Dick tomorrow and chat with him.

    Full ARH exhaust, pulley, tune. -1800 DA I was about 3 1/2 mph faster than the other stock TA's that day. I never ran the car stock.

    I talked with Dick yesterday, he thinks you could use the big valve heads if you wanted to (although with the S/C you probably would not need to) the cam they have designed though is not S/C compatible, I don't see them going all through the development process for the cam and then the added tuning for this. The bottom end would likely need to be drastically beefed up to go beyond the planned package, at least for a company like Arrow to be comfortable offering it.

    I had the same convo with him yesterday here in Houston. I'm happy to see it's blower only.

    They know where to find me, although I doubt it would ever come to fruition.

    Blower only as in still retains the VVT cam? Interesting...I'm guessing they can control how much boost gets bled off better if that's the case.
