Yep but it makes more power than port. So running as much DI as possible makes sense.

More HP equals more air. I think your Eddie is out of steam and don’t think you can get another 10 lb/min airflow out of it. Nitrous is HP at any altitude lol.

You should definitely post better details, in my humble opinion. Anyone interested will want to know much more. A pic of LME’s build sheet would definitely help. Your profile says you drive a 2014...

Intake air temp pre blower is blown way out of proportion by most enthusiasts. The blower is going to crank that temp way up anyway, and then your...

I’ve had great luck with the Dayco belts and have never broke one (furiously knocking on wood lol). And my old Kong ported Whipple 2.9 was way overspun too. Obviously I can’t guarantee anything but...

I’d be taking a close look at the tensioner… only way that pulley gets to be that way is there’s not enough bite into the belt and too much reliance on the frictional pulley surface. I could totally...

You definitely do not need to do heads on an LT4 to make good power. They flow decently well stock and with a blower, it’s just not going to be a massive power gain to do the heads.

Do not run 26” wheels with a PD blower lol…definitely run 28” tall to help blunt the torque hit of the blower. 305/45/17 is a common size that works well. MT ET Street R drag radials are perfect...

No surprise there… tank over head generates some water column into the pump volute so that it doesn’t cavitate or become air bound.
