What procharger unit? The 177 is good to the upper 500's from what I recall off top of head. Above that she will make heat

There is zero comparison between the m1 procharger and a 177 or even a 250/256 for that matter. The m1 is much more efficient.

I would not put a 177 blower on a 502.

I have 8 years with 177s on 454s reliable 100 hp addition. Sounds killer verses procharger. Both setups have 5 lbs of boost. Blower also less garbage to install. Fuel cool and water to air chiller makes for too much .

There`s another option: leave it alone till you can afford to do it right.
