You could also go turbo and won't need to change pulleys for different boost levels, have no belt throwing issues, do boost by gear/time, run the same intake.....

What rods are in that motor? Is it resleeved? What are the power goals?
Titanium factory rods are not the best choice for boost.

I would also be weary about boosting on the stock sleeves that are even prone to cracking when pushed hard running N/A.

This is my turbo setup with a/c in progess. Should make 500rwhp with a tiny amount of boost and 900rwhp+ or whatever the factory rods will hold set on kill. All adjustable within the car. I'm running modified factory truck manifolds that I got for free and added V-bands. C5 Vette accessories, Holley a/c bracket/compressor.
