OK well first day drive a couple of things that I noticed. One, this engine has GREAT oil pressure compared to what I am used to. COLD oil pressure is about 50 PSI and warmed up it still sees about 43-45 PSI. The compares to around 35-36 PSI on my previous setup.

Second, the idle is not as rough as my previous setup which makes sense as I had a very large cam and was running about 13.5 to 1 compression with that NA setup.

I noticed more super charger whine when compared to a basically stock 2019 ZL1 that I had because I am spinning the supercharger FASTER. The torque comes on INSTANTLY even though I am being very gentle on the throttle.

AMP has said the engine was set up to make 750 to 850 ft lbs of torque over a very broad RPM range which of course we will confirm in a couple of weeks after Break iN on a DYNO.

On a side note, we had talked some about going the MAGNUSON route instead of stock blower. MY assumption was that the MAGNUSON had much better cooling properties but in doing some real world research, I determined that, the cooling is only marginally better. Now had I wanted a 1000 or BETTER HP setup than I probably would have gone that route. AMP has had GREAT success with both setups and I didnt feel I could really use much more than 750 to 800HP on the street anyway. My opinion is the FACTORY solutions tend to be more reliable over time. Nobody can outspend GM on R&D and that THAT I believe typically results in better reliabilty
