This all comes down to power goals and what the engine build would be. Have other run the combo on a 377 or smaller cube motor? Of course, is it ideal or does it work well? Depends on who you ask... I haven't said he shouldn't do it, merely its a lot of blower for stock cubes in my opinion. If he only wants to make 700-800whp in the end I would tell him to run a D1X with the upgraded intercooler and so on. Its a better match in my opinion. If he wants 900-1k whp the F1A can work. My shop was pretty honest in saying for getting to 1k I needed the cubes for a well rounded combo of power/torque.
Its a matter of power goals, cubes and budget of course. Many ways to slice this carrot LOL. But thats why I asked the other questions as it tells us what he may ultimately need for his combo
