Good point Walt, I rather blow the gasket than a piston. The blower I have in mind is Vortech, it's not written in stone, but definitely a centrifugal type. It doesnt have the same cool look as a 6-71 or similar, but the centrifugal should be more reliable.

I know folks that push 20+ at felpro's in sbc's without issues. For extra insurance the cometic gasket are better sealers...but be carefull if you detonate with a felpro it may blow. If you detonate with a cometic there is a good chance the piston will blow first. What type of blower do you plan on running? Centrifugal or Roots? I ran my procharger @ 10-15 lbs and loved it.
