If you decide to go with a jerico. Johnny hightower out of S.C. builds a mean Jerico tranny...you can google his name.

Also a Buddy of mine had Ed Horton help him with a straight axles (leaf spring) 66 chevelle...2x3 frame rail...with true 10 inch Tires...Anyhow the short of it..he is having Gene Fulton Build him a 706ci Pump gas Blown Engine, he already has a jerico sitting in the floor

I do not have a clue what this pump gas blown 706ci will make..lets just say 15lbs of boost as a reference point...Anyone care to Guess ?

i will get some pics of this car and post them...sort of reminds me of Smoky Unicks old car the way it sits etc...

Yikes blown yet,wow! But there is a curtain point that a blower just won't make as much boost as a smaller cube engine. If you talk to Oddy's they say 4.530 is max. bore they want to see in supercharger application. You can't build boost if you have garbage cans for cylinders,but it will look impressive.
