Will,
Be careful there..... If you have cleaned up the heads and are using a decent intake (M-1) 29 lb/hr injectors is all you
need (310 CC). That's what we are using. I hope you are not using the factory rods (A-type or Magnums), you really
need to step up to either Eagle or Manley's. Factory rods are not up to snuff. What pistons are you using????? If they
are Diamond's pistons, then you have a static C/R with the Magnum heads right up around 12/1 (pumping compression) above 200 PSI unless you have a cam with a hell of a lot of overlap. Even the soon to be released
KB pistons, static compression is up to 10/1. If you are actually going to use a blower, use one of the after-market
injector plates and computer (Vortech, Paxton, etc). Smaller injectors (29 lb/hr) will give you a better spray pattern and
the plate will give you better fuel control under boost. Good luck with the head gaskets.

Subject: DML: 408 Update and blower question
Ok, the 360 block has been bored honed, blueprinted, and all moving peices
have been balanced in it. Total displacement is 408 (really 407.9 something
:o) picky me). Now for the blower question. Which brand has been proven to
work awesomely on the Dodge with the computer system. I am going to have a
custom computer made for the dak since this is a totaly different motor than
anything that the DC has put a puter on. I am going ot run 36 lb/hr
injectors with possible additional injectors for full boost. I am stuck
between PowerDyne and Paxton. What are the adv/disadv of each? Thanks
