Not the same setup but I am running 8-9 lbs on a M-3 (on a 540). Mine runs fine on pump gas. You are wise to go with the bigger blower though. After trashing one blower and getting pieces in my AW 504 intercooler, I moved up to a 570 ci cooler from Frozen Boost.
You are gonna make some nice power.
What size cooler do they use with a M-5?

I will be eliminating the twin carb enclosure for a hat.

The M-5 uses there largest Intercooler the AW-648 it is 30% larger than the AW-504. they also changed the step up ratio to 5.63:1 on the SC model, which allows a larger pulley 50% more belt contact area (no need for the cog belt) up to 1500hp. And the are saying the SC system will deliver 5-10% more hp at the same boost level.

12 rib design. The big thing is the driven pulley (supercharger) is much larger with more contact area 50% more due to the internal step up ratio. which allows for a lower pulley ratio to spin the impeller the same speed hence a larger pulley, and more contact area.

Procharger is building my system. I spoke wrong they are not using a impeller out of a F series blower. I was having issues as to how that would work anyway. What they are doing is using the technology. They do much more R&D on the auto side. They have a new design they just came up with and tested that they are going to put in my M-5SC. They make there impellers and in fact there systems all in house. They are going to apply the new technology to my M-5 impeller. It will come on sooner, not surge, and make more HP for the same boost due to a more efficient design. They scheduled to start building my system this Thursday. I ordered a pulley to make 10psi @ 6200 RPMs. That should get me started. Procharger has a 540 with 8 to 1 compression and the same AFR 357 heads as a test mule that makes 1100hp with 10psi boost on pump gas.. My 572 should make a few more HP. I think that should get the job done. Any guess to how long my IMCO Extreme SC drive is going to last, lol

Slight over Trim, makes for a great picture
It was fun @ 90 MPH, but the one I helped build that runs 104 MPH was so much better. I can only imagine the rush when this one is done.
