    Default Help with suggestions for my Supercharger build

    Well guys and girls I'm gathering stuff to build a supercharged LT1 for my 1993 Camaro. I upgraded the rear and tranny this year and now I want more power. It's addicting. . Tick stage 3 Viperized tranny and a Strange S60 with 4:10's TrueTrac spiral gear locker and 35 spline axles. 3" chromoly driveshaft and currently a Spec stage 2plus clutch. I apologize for all the questions. Been searching searching and searching and figured it would be quicker to ask the experts on here. I want a fast bad ass car. Not a daily driver but I do drive it on the street and attend car cruises/shows.

    Here's what I have so far with questions:

    LT1 Vortech V1 S trim setup. Came with the crane HI6 Digital and boost control timing control 8 rib pulleys. I believe 6.66 CS and 3.5 on head unit. I would like to get in the 10-12lb boost range. I know there a lot of variables that can affect boost and no two engines are alike. I'm sure I'll get there once its built and start playing with things.

    My current ignition is all MSD with Digital 6 plus box. Should I just buy the MSD BTM add on box or switch to the crane box.

    Shortblock: LT1 block .030 over, billet splayed caps, ARP fasteners, Eagle forged stroker crank (383), Eagle forged H beam rods (5.7), Clevite H series bearings, and SRP forged flat top pistons. Should I replace the pistons with dished ones? I will be running IC and meth injection.

    Looking for suggestions on heads. I currently have stock LT1 heads that have a stage 2 port, polish and bowl blending done to them with Comp beehive springs, stock valves. Think these will work or should I upgrade? If so, suggestions on what's good for forced induction.

    Current cam: Thunder racing 230/236 .544/.555 (1.6 rockers) 112LSA. double roller TC. Will this work or upgrade? I like the thumping and power range plus I feel it's street friendly. Just not sure how it will work with a supercharger.

    Stock ported intake with 58mm TB, 36lb injectors, Accel adj FP. Racetronixfuel pump with Hotwire kit. I'm guessing I'll need to do the dual fuel pump setup but how do you know what size injectors to go with?

    Intercooler: FMIC or air to water?? Looking at CX racing air to water setup. Anyone use one of these?

    I also have a stage 3 Snow Performance meth kit to install.

    Tuning: I live in central PA and will need someone to tune. I currently have a chip tuned by PCMFORLESS. I'm willing to tow it there if I have to but would like to find someone closer that can do speed density. Any suggestions?

    Thanks for you time and suggestions.

    Didn't have time to read it all but I have some srp -31cc pistons I'll sell cheap.

    I'm not the greatest with a blower but depending on your power goals I'd go 60lb-80lb injectors and a dual pump setup on a hobbs switch.

    I had an A2A because its simple and meth will cool the air also.

    I have no clue about the cam but the same rule applies to heads as anything, the more they flow the better.

    If I'm correct that should put me around 9:1 CR with stock heads and gaskets. Are these for 5.7 rod and .030 over. Just double checking. PM me your "cheap" price please.
