I ask because I am leaning toward a PD type system for a few reasons & as all things seem to go with projects I personally could see wanting to go north of 700RWHP.
I guess what I’m saying is I see the 2950 being used in the EForce now & if that blower say makes 20 less HP or Tq in the lower manifold pressure ranges, without any bad side effects like say compressor surge, yet allows for much more power capability later on, I could see myself going that route.

On a mostly stock LT1 you will be limited to what the fuel system can supply which right at or about 580 RWHP no matter what blower you run we typically see this much power at 8-9 psi boost.
So unless you are willing to step up the fuel system there is no reason to reach for a 2650. (there is no 2950).
Now if 700 RWHP is your goal you will need our JRE Super Street Brawler package makes 710 RWHP on 93 octane and features the TVS 2300.
This same power package on E-60 makes 750 RWHP easy.
I feel the 2650 should be reserved for 800 RWHP plus builds.
I would be open to substituting the 2300 for a 2650 in our Super Street Brawler package.
I have everything in stock if you are ready.
On the LT you will often find the limits of the fuel system long before you find the limits of the blowers.
