ECU mods... .. so instead of going drop out to leverage assesories and wiring hrness.. shold i consider a long block aftermarket intake and Fuel injection?
Or, go LS3 and a zo6 procharger already ready to go on OEM brackets?
Only hitch here is I like a quiet idle... a heard prochargers whine alot...

Your current Hp goals can be done with NA engine, but I post my thread from LS1tech with the Harrop Supercharger. I am Sparky67 on LS1Tech, but changed it here. I pulled my threads here long ago, so I know it is not on this forum. I did look at Turbo's, but Turbo generates to much heat to be able to drive anywhere. Procharger was an option, but it requires special brackets.
Supercharger will require a custom cooling Radiator, liquid to air intercooler (Autorad built mine), Custom fuel tank with built in fuel pumps from Rick's (I have dual pumps), Bowler transmission 4l80-E. ECU is from GM, but can be an LS1 with 24x reluctor wheel. Another option is to use 58X reluctor wheel, but the LS3 ECU. Speartech harness or other options are available.
Custom tuning for the ECU. Rich Gala (former W2W Tuner) was my tuner.
Cost will be more than you expect. So, if you plan to do this type of build then you better have cash or your project will take longer than you expect.
