supercharged or injected 392 or 354?

Post by m139 »

I have considerable engine building and porting expierience and also have a problem, Which engine to use? I have a 1971 barracuda that will get a one piece fiberglass frontend , sub frame and roll cage, as well as tubbs in the back, I have a good 392, and a 354 heavy truck engine and am able to machine parts to make the truck heads work for water flow, I also have a 440 bored .030 with forged pistons ported 2.14-1.81 915 heads (10.8-1 c.r.) 312-.590 mechanical cam and 2x4bbl tunnel ram made from a weiand 6-bbl tunnel ram. my question is how would the horsepower compare to the 440 with a supercharged (6-71 and the new hillborn injection) 354 or 392 still running GOOD gasoline and possibly water/alchohol injection with a roller cam that won't prevent some LIMITED street use? would the new manifold and hillborn injection work better than a blower all things considered?
Thanks for the help!
