As a baseline, I'd like to make these assumptions:

Use stock computer
Maintain street drive ability with AC, power brakes, power steering etc.
Stock driveline and street tires
Something to take on Hotrod power tour
Pump gas or E85



My basic idea is to turbo or supercharge it and limit boost in first/second gear to make drivetrain live.
Chris, I run my truck with all the above. BTW, its nice to turn on the AC on coming down the return road lol.

Keep the boost limited to 6 psi or you might break a ring land or 2, don't go into part throttle boost, you'll need a boost referenced fuel pressure regulator to adjust your a/f's and don't use E85 with the factory pcm or you'll run lean unless to got the pedal to the rug and thats where the adjustable FP regulator comes into play.
