I did a set about 1 1/2 years ago. They were a pair of my 750 NA's. They are 598, 10:1 with a 1050 dom. We just removed the intake and bolted on the Whipple and went to the dyno. They made 942 hp and 1070 ft lbs at 5.5 psi on 93 octane and 1020 hp and 1190 ft lbs at 8 psi on 100 octane

I stayed with the 509 CID
Took Eddie's advise with the 3.3 Carbed Whipples.
New cams and blower pistons
Chrome valve covers
Stellings headers

Hoping to get 3000HP each with those chromed valve covers :)
