On a normally aspirated motor with a good set of heads with large intake ports you would have a point. However, his L98 heads do not have large intake ports from the factory, and porting them as much as possible isn't going to make them big enough to effect port velocity in a negative way. Did I forget to mention that a roots blower will make boost from just off idle? In other words, he will have plenty of "low end punch".

yea i would change the cam also if you guys maybe thought that was a problem......but i truely don't know how this is gonna work if i can't fit under my ss hood...cuz there is no way i'm gonna get a new hood...is there an alternative??? maybe a cheap centrifugal charger that somebody knows about???

Have you considered adding a fiberglass cowl to your existing hood?

BTW, supercharger and cheap don't work in the same sentence.

no i can't be adding anothe cowl on top of my ss scoop...that would pretty much just wreck the looks of the hood...i think i'm gonna look into something else, maybe like a 450 HP crate motor or something..thanks for all the input tho guys...

what about running a Paxton or equivalent S/C?

that would sit on the side of the motor,but instead of being on a fuel injected car,you could buy a "bonet" to go onto the carb to replace the intake tube that would be for fuel injection.

sorry if that doesnt make sense,hopefully you can get the idea.

that would fit under a stock hood
