im looking at buying a 6-71 blower from my cousin,im wanting too put it on the 383 i just put in.any advice? im not sure what the cr is but it should be around 9.5 to 1 or 10 to 1. I t had a weind 144 on it before i got it and it ran great.he also has 144 for sale.trying too decide wich one and what carb to run with either.

first off all way to much compression..need to be in the 8s...i would never put a blower on with that kind of compression

95 camaro Z28. 350 LT1 10:1 comp. paxton, votech, pro charger, all make kits for 10psi. i know a few guys doing single turbos with 9.5 comp and pushing 6-8psi. not the best idea but set up right very doable. dont go over 3-5 psi and you will be just fine.

on my blazer i run flat top pistons and 76 cc heads 200 cc runners and big valves i have a wiend 141 blower and a 850 barry grant blower carb and run 7-8 lbs boost and it would scream but to be safe i would run forged internals on any blower or turbo engine .

What ever you decide to do make sure what you are putting the blower on top of or the consequences could be disasterous.

Just a bit of advise. I built a Pro Street 67 Camaro with a Littlefield 671 Blower on it and the happiest day of my life was when I sold the car! I hated it and if you didn't get it started on the first try then plan on changing the plugs. I had Holley's Pro shop build carbs and even had it dyno tuned with new carbs and it was still a nitemare! I will never ever own another 671 Blown car!! I've had side mounted Pro Chargers, Paxtons, Vortex etc and they are completly different! A word of advise RUN as far as you can from the blower!! LOL
