1.)the 103TB can be used with a supercharger of your choice whether it is PD or Centrifugal. the MSD will only work with a Centrifugal S/C or Turbo set up. the roto fab for the LT1 is not compatible with Centrifugal S/C's but can be modified for P/D superchargers like whipple, magnuson,etc, some turbo set ups retain it if you do rear mounted.

I'll add that on a centri it will add zero HP and there are issues with the intake hose hooking up with the 103mm. So you will be putting back the stock TB in all probability.
Same goes for the MSD, it will work but it is worth zero HP. If he REALLY wants a tb and intake manifold and will go centri, get the pray ported stuff, still don't think it adds anything or adds so little there is no SOTP difference from bone stock to completely 103mm and ported MSD.
PDBlower you know what you are talking about.

I picked 1 and 7/8 due to fitment. If this was a full D1x or 2600cc build I'd ask for 2", agree there is no loss in low end. I know there are people insistent there are no issues with 2", I have direct experience on several brands that says otherwise. Not bad, don't get me wrong, but Joe Average can't handle a dent here a grind there move subframe etc (no HP loss even with MAJOR dent).

Agree

I went with Lingenfelter stuff, on my second FI build. LT4 stuff works fine to 700 WHP IMO.
