So I can push a 5.0 to go from 435 to 700-800hp but less than a half a liter less and the limits are proportionally less? No arguing, and I really appreciate the info, but I definitely don't understand it. Even with the limitations, for the money, the 300hp that these cars give trumps...

When putting a supercharger on a car, sometimes you have to look at other parts to support the upgrade... maybe a new clutch, trans, brakes, suspension, etc... When it comes to the earlier S197's...what considerations and parts are needed beyond the blower kit? Any known issues that make...
