Bolt-ons or boost? It’s the age-old question when building horsepower. Or should you just jump right into doing both? Luckily for us Richard Holdener is the king of dyno testing and can show you in the video below. So if you want to see what the real potential is of a heads, cam, and intake swap vs some boost, in this case on a 347 stroker small-block Ford, then here is your chance. Check it out below.

Video Description:

SHOULD I JUST ADD BOOST TO MY STOCK MOTOR? WHAT HAPPENS IF I ADD BOOST TO MY STOCK 5.0L OR STROKER? HOW MUCH POWER ARE PORTED 5.0L HEADS WORTH? HOW MUCH POWER IS A VORTECH SUPERCHARGER WORTH? SHOULD I UPGRADE THE HEADS, CAM AND INTAKE ON A 347 SBF? WHAT HAPPENS IF I COMBINE PORTED HEADS, AN XFI CAM AND RPM II INTAKE WITH BOOST? CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO WHERE I DYNO TESTED A 347 STROKER FORD. THE STROKER WAS FIRST RUN WITH STOCK E7TE HEADS, A STOCK 5.0L CAM AND GT-40 INTAKE, THEN WITH A VORTECH S-TRIM SUPERCHARGER. I THEN UPGRADED THE STOCK HEADS, CAM AND GT-40 WITH RHS PORTED ALUMINUM HEADS, A BIG XFI HYD ROLLER CAM AND EDELBROCK RPM II INTAKE. I FINISHED THINGS OFF BY ONCE AGAIN ADDING THE VORTECH SUPERCHARGER!
