    So to do a set of webbers correctly will cost over $3000. Doesn't include fuel pump regs and stuff. Plus you need a engine worthy of em.
     
    Blower requires the same engine under it if not more and a properlly ported cyl head as a start.
     
    Big ignition is needed like a coil per plug/cam sync type deal. A msd and stuff can work but also kill coils like hookers do condoms.
     
    If you can't do the fab work you need to find someone left field to help you.
     
    Ryan AKA Tas is a Wagga local too and will help were he can.
     
    And yes dex I run a M1SC-b Procharger on my xflow making 14PSI. It power skids in top gear at 80-100kph. But again there a $2000 blower 2nd hand minimum and then you need to sort pullies brackets and shit.I used chev stuff as it fits xflows and a 8 rib serpentine drive. Was easy for me but its not for everyone.

    There was the biggest problem with peoples understanding of the long stroke xflow from days gone.Cyl pressure spikes are extreme and small cams with big comp make em rattle but the fix was camshaft design not the cyl head.

    650 Will be fine. Cyl head will limit hp potential not cam or carb. I understand the budget build and you can mod the head later to suit. 
     
    Cam I would suggest you research US boosted engine combos and what is currently used. Been as your cube limited a modern cam idea works better here. Mine is pretty well what most call a NA profile but my grinder does the same on RB engines making over a G of hp.

    OK take this with alot of thought if your not comfortable but you could just fit the bare rims to the rear and jack up the car at both ends and clean the rims with the engine going,car in gear and wheels spinning. Done it before myself

    Id suggest blow thru over any factory ecu.
     
    Or a aftermarket ecu like a MS3 or even a FAST set up with a screen.

    McDonald bros sell a double adjustable bolt in coil over for under $1000. Well only just barely under and few years back but after doing a couple DC events and many street miles can reccomend them as a option.
     
    Takes longer to remove the old shit than it does to install the new stuff. And setting em up is different to what most think. But each car is wanting its own set up as per driver style wants needs and use.

    His name is Chris,nice bloke and did Tony Spaznoski's combos. Yes he swears exactly like that in person too.
    The hp gain for them is easy to explain. The exhaust and inlet are on the same side.So if you have a tube pulling air from the grille getting air forced in by a fan thats cooler than under bonnet temps it will make more hp.
    I would suggest using the EF El intake as it works and fits better. Quintin aka crazy did it years ago and alot better than Clints effort.
    Having a solid roller webers and 13:1 comp idle @ 950rpm in gear and handle traffic like anything else I often hold back from commenting as I know how different real life is to internet life. Quintin drove the car like 300-400kms and we even loaned a fellow LS powered racer some fuel as our economy was better than theres was. I know right...better than a EFI LS.So again the Webers (which were standard fittment on BMW Ferrari Mazaratti Lambos the list is endlist) came out beter than all thought in real life. 
    Look up Bud Moore intakes. You will see how he used twin 1050 dominators on flat tappet 289-302 Windsors and 302 chevs that worked so well they got banned.
    So will you actually fit tripples to anything ??? Ill say no but you sure would have a hell of a experiance if you did.The noise is so addictive,the wow factor is huge and your street cred would surprise you. The power... well smoking 275x60's to limiter in top gear from a dig no brakes for as long as your game makes it all worth the effort.

    You have to over bore and sleeve to suit then grout the block up to the welsh plugs at least. 
     
    But again still limited by head gasket to around 3.82 from memory unless you go custom copper maybe. Moving the bore away from the valve is good move for power and cyl head flow aswell so a move to a 3.9 or 4.0 slug would be awesome in a xflow. 
     
    Possible??? Well just asking the question makes it doable imo. No better way to dis prove peoples doubts than doing it.
