with the tuner kit you'll need 440-550cc injectors, a new fuel system like the CJM or AAM fuel return kit, and some engine management like a UTEC

or you can just buy the regular full vortech kit if you want to keep things simpler

all you would need is full kit + 3.12 pully and flash/tune to hit 400rwhp easily
for 420rwhp u need the 2.87 pully with bigger enjectors and pump.. thats it

IMO, anything past the 3.12 is pushing the limits of the rods.

I think the stock fuel system would probably work ok at 420whp. I think there's a few people running it at those power levels, but I don't know for sure. A return kit is usually the best choice

so if i just plan to not build the motor up any time soon or at all....only runing about 380-400whp on the vortech .....do you think it will be faster and more fun to drive then a stillen stage 4.

i just want something reliable and fast....i know it two words you cant combine but you get my point

Add a Walboro 255 fuel pump.I would probably go with a 550cc injector too. Remember superchargers take horsepower from the engine to run them.......this means you need to supply even more fuel then you would on a turbo to make the same power with a supercharger.
