Let us know what you end up doing. I've been thinking about this as well. I was going to go to Arrington and ask them, but for $7K, i'd just assume swap for a 6.4 or an LS. AEV had a supercharged Brute hemi I saw in Moab so I was thinking they might eventually offer a kit.

It will supply the volume, and a 6.4 won't eat enough fuel to worry about pressure.
WHAT KIND OF ENGINE BLOWS 2500 HP??
That's hell lot of HORSES....
Just curious ?????
THE B767 i fly has 62,500 LBS THRUST maybe should run one of those...

Big big diesel. It runs almost 8,000 ft-lbs (lbs-ft) of torque at its peak. 4 turbochargers and a huge air to water inter-cooler it was so cool running it that hard for that long. The dyno we ran it on is good to 4,000 HP and 12,000 ft-lbs, and is water cooled.

I think those engines on the 767 may have this beat by a tad

Yeah I will. Its on a temporary hold for right now as I finish up house remodeling.
Gonna be calling around for a quote. If its around $7g's I'd sooner put the 6.4 (or 7.1 if it'll fit).
What would give more power: 6.4 or supercharged 5.7?
