Forged internals is good if you are gonna throw a supercharger on and run more than 10#'s of boost. And other than that, the usual bolt ons with some good flowing heads.

Beste performance with a blower is accomplished with low static compression - like 8:1 - and the right cam. Unfortunatly, those items would make a NA engine run like a dog.

If you have the funds, build a blower motor and add the blower at the same time.

Otherwise, you'll need to comprimise a bit and accept some low performance until you get the blower added.

Blowers and NA alike make power by moving air. Use the best heads you can afford. I would recommend the Edelbrock heads. Be sure to port match the manifold. Not so important with NA, but more important with a blower.
