about 120* after a good run in the heat of summer.
109* when the water and ambient temps drops.

Doesn't this solve your 10-71 problem? An 8.3L Whipple in disguise.

They make a EFI version with 10 injectors in the back also.

Mike is Yes.
All things being equal; temp under intercooler and boost, 200hp would mean the roots takes 200hp to turn over a whipple?
It would also mean that my 548ci at 8psi would make 1200hp.
It took 6800rpm and 13lbs of boost for your engine MIke to hit 1206hp.
Just doesn`t add up.
Eddie young did a back to back and got over a 100hp difference 10-71 vs 8.3 whipple.
I`ll be happy with a 75hp . at the same boost level .

Correct Dan, Bob Teague also did a back to back with a 598 cu inch & 1471 vs 8.3 L and difference was right at 100 Hp definitely no 200 hp

My advise would be to buy new intake manifolds from Whipple for Port injection. This will help with fuel distribution. Running the fuel through the blower from the throttle body usually loads up the front 4 cylinders with fuel and leans out the back 4. I know bc of hours on the dyno with both set ups. This will also help docking manners and make programming easier
