My advice: Ditch the Tri-Ax and get an MGW instead.

I also (just me personally) would do the built engine first.. mainly because I'd hate to spend 12 or whatever hours installing the supercharger, then taking it back off and trying to not lose/damage parts in the process, then swap it all back to the new engine, etc, etc.

Just my .02 .. its refreshing to see people with attainable goals in mind.

I thought the same exact thing on the engine but to be honest, I have no clue what is needed to build an engine that can handle full boost from the procharger and a possible squirt of nx. If I can obtain the rwhp I want with just the procharger I would stay away from the nx. The nx kit would be the last resort. :shrug:
 
I'm no engine builder, but a set of forged pistons and rods, maybe some Manley H beams, along with a cobra crank & perhaps new oil pump gears should keep you safe up to well above what you're looking to go to.. tune is probably the most important part of keeping either engine together. The guys over at Modular Power House could help you out advising on what specific components you would probably need.

I was recently quoted "No less than $6k for a forged rebuild," from MPH, and that was to simply swap out the factory internals for forged parts.. so plan on more if you have other intentions.
 
Dude that is some list. You are going to make a lot of vendors happy. You're doing your homework. Fun aint it. I am not far enough to tell you anything about the SC or engine parts. That comes this spring. You might want to consider a master rebuild kit for the rearend when you do that part (if you are trying to include every little piece/part in your list) and also a new rearend cover, heavy duty. Optional, just thought I would throw those in.

Sub Frame connectors with that much power.

And a get out of jail free card with all that speed.

I do not have one but everyone is ranting and raving about the MGW shifter. Night want to check that out. I have the UPR with adjustable handle and am happy with it.
 
You will never get the HP you are looking for with that fuel system. You will have to go after market for an entire new fuel system. Dual pumps, new tank or modified tank. Your ECU won't like those 60# injectors either. You will be paying serious cash for a tune as well. just so you have an idea what your looking at. Honestly, htere is no such thing as a safe 550-650rwhp. You will be breaking crap all over the place. Be more conservative and look 400-500. I'm going done this road right now and have most of the crap you are talking about and it is not as easy as it sounds. A lot of things do not go well together and it takes time and cash to work the bugs out. I have a forged 306 with a KB 1.7 to install and I am still amassing parts. You are missing the billet oil pump gears which are a neccessity are the power you are looking for. You will need cams and better flowing heads as well. It is a lot of work and cash. trust me.
 
The intake elbow and TB should be later on your list after headers and exhaust. Probably throw in an SCT tune at that point too, you will just have to pay again for dyno time but use the same chip. Might be happier with doing the gears in round 1 also.
