even though it's out dated the F cam is a good supercharger cam, take a look at the anderson b21 even though it's a little more $$.

Thats not good, you need 42lb Injectors 255lph pump at least and i would recommend a t-rex external pump also. Take FMU and throw out in the field. No matter if you have fmu or not car is running lean which is not good at all

Click to expand...

My advice measure..you will probally be okay but it's a really good idea to check ptv. what size rockers/springs you going with? It would really not be a good idea to get into the revs on a motor I didn't check out.
