Welcome aboard!

Give the search function a shot. Key words:

Stroker
h/c/i
supercharger
blower
combination
crate motor
long block

That should give you enough to read up on for the next week or so.

Trick Flow makes a kit with H/C/I all together. While i'm not a fan of their intakes, if i had the coin i would probably do this.

Yeah they have 2 kits... the street heat kit and the track heat kit. I believe the street heat is more geared towards low end torque while the track heat is geared towards top end hp... I could be wrong though You can get them for summit, both kits are the same proce (around 2,000) and I have heard great results from both kits! It is rated at 350fwhp ...people here have put down anywhere between 270rwhp (on an old ass block) up to around 311rwhp (on a newer block)
