Procharger on a 305TPI
I've got an rebuilt 305 TPI and I am thinking about adding an ATI procharger to my little block.
The engine is as stands, 305 rebuilt 43,000 miles, ported heads, 52mm thottle body, 3inch exhaust, headers in two weeks, 8.5 MSD wires & plugs, MSD Blaster coil, distrubutor, new fuel lines, ram air.
I am planning on selecting a new cam soon here, and I am wondering if I should select a new set of heads before installing a procharger. What else might I want to take into consideration befoe installing the procharger??

New heads wouldnt hurt at all. If you are getting heads though, get ones with larger than the stock 58cc chambers which are on there now. What this will do is lower your compression, allowing you to run more boost, and lowers the risk of detonation. I would recommend an ATI due to its intercooled setup... basically the safest thing to do.
Good luck!

I have built my 305 for a supercharger and I'm using aluminum L98 heads with my setup. Haven't got the blower yet but I know Willie had good results with this setup.
I'm also running crane compucam (powermax) p#104224, which I like a lot

Did you change fuel pump and injectors when adding supercharger? I just ordered a pro charger for my 350 and don't want her to go lean!
