Procharger ?
Two quick questions here.
#1. What are the prices on a basic carbed Procharger setup? Their website doesnt really mention any pricing.
#2. Seeing as its a blow-through design, can a basic 750 DP carb work, or is a bigger carb needed on a healthy 355?
TIA for any input.

There's a spot on their site where you can give them your address and specs and they will send you a whole packet of info with options and pricing for your vehicle for free. It will tell you what you need to do as far as fuel system and carburetion as well.

With a carbed set up a regular carb can support a lot more hp than n/a. You can use a basic double pumper as long as you do a few mods to it. I got a price list to all the ATI prices around the house somewhere. If I can manage to find it I will post them up.
A 600 DP will be more than enough for a blow thru setup. Forced induction does not follow the same requirements of a NA engine. Now if it was a draw through thats a different story. You will need to do some carb work. If you are a novice buy the Complete kit with the carb and bolt it on and have a good time. Watch what camshaft you run NA cams don't work well either as the have low LSA numbers. you want a round a 114 but 112 work ok to if they don't have a ton of duration.

On blowthrough forced induction setups you only need a carb that flows as much air as the engine would use NA, without the blower, but you may end up sizing it larger anyway to get fuel metering circuits that can meter enough fuel to feed the engine + blower
Blow thru engines actually need smaller carbs than NA engine. here is a chart of of ATI's site to help you decide.
600 cfm for up to 500 hp
650 cfm for up to 650 hp
700 cfm for up to 750 hp
750 cfm for up to 900 hp
