    I'm looking to getting a whole new aluminum longblock 3v - fully built up. So I could have whipple blower installed on it throws lots of boost on it. What size blowers does Whipple have? I heard they have like a 3.3 liter or something. I'm just curious as to what numbers I could get out of this setup. Don't worry about all the other stock parts, because those will be all changed.

    They have he 2.3, 2.9, and 3.4 liter blowers. The 2.3 will support as much as you'll ever use on the street. The larger blowers make serious power, but will run cooler at higher boost because they won't spin as fast.

    So they have 2.9 and 3.4 blowers for the 3V motors for sale? 800rwhp is the goal.

    Then the 3.4 is the one for you if you want to get near that number with a whipple. I would think at the boost needed to run that much HP the bigger the better for efficiency purposes.

    2.3 is the only one that will bolt right up. There's a guy on another forum that fabbed up his own aluminum intake for the 3.4 liter.
