All depends on your preference, what you want to do with it and the motor it's going on.

I have a radial entry Whipple on a 427CI GM LSX with Air Flow heads. I wanted the old school look, high tech blower, EFI and more HP than I knew what to do with.

I got it. Ignore the 2x4 holding up the hood at my body shop. I am redoing the paint...

TVS2300

I think among the three most popular blowers - whipple, kenne bell, and Maggie (tvs2300), the TVS2300 has the most efficient intercooler.

Can't really go wrong with any of those though.

with most blower systems now days you cant go wrong... kenne bell, whipple, magnuson, even the newer edelbrock eforce blowers are nice. i like roots blower just because of the simplicity and how clean they install when they are said and done

With LS3 heads you can use the ZL1 take offs for about 1/2 the cost of the others mentioned.
