What should I do?
I havn't been around in awhile to busy with work. But I am at the point that I am going to start tearing the engine apart on the truck. I am building a 383 stroker with a 700r4 for it but can't decide if I should stick with the blower or run nitrous. Somewhere around a 100 shot. What do you guys think?

Re: What should I do?
blowers look cooler, nos would be alright but then you have to find a spot to mount the bottle

Blower, i don't like nitrous to hard on engine, i've seen too many engines that nitrous have eaten the top of the pistons up, just my 2 cents

Re: What should I do?
Just curious, you already have the blower right? Is there a reason your thinking of changing? I'd take a blower anyway, if for no other reason than the cool factor

Re: What should I do?
I love the blower don't get me wrong, I was just thinking something different is the only reason I was thinking nitrous. Plus I have a guy that has been bugging me about selling the blower and if I did that would pay for the motor parts. It does have a cool factor when you open the hood.
