Out of curiosity, did you have to get a different driveshaft or did the stock length work for the top loader as well?  Thanks.

Brent, do you have approximate pricing on ported vs unported, fully assembled?  Thank you.

There’s one on eBay but it’s expensive.  Comes with 2 different intakes though. 
Think it’s been on there a while now.

I shelved the Torqstorm project for the summer, I was working 70 hour weeks and then we’re finishing
Our camping season, and I’m helping too many people with side jobs that I won’t be driving it til spring since winter in on it’s way.  I’m pretty close, but no report.  There are several YouTube videos with 390 torqstorms.  I think it’s gonna be awesome, supports a lot of airflow.

In the process of installing the Torqstorm centrifugal supercharger kit now.  It’s a very well designed kit with thorough installing instructions, including tips and other information needed in folder it comes with.  My engine isn’t an  ideal setup, but I got a decent deal on the kit and thought I’d try it out at a modest amount of boost, as it also is just a street driven cruiser, etc.  been working and camping too much to complete project, but I’m excited for it.  Swapped over to Ethanol too, man, stuff is expensive. lol

Just went to BBM page, it allowed to to add a cast iron block
To the shopping cart, appearing to not be “sold out”.  Might want to try again.  BBM blocks are highly praised. I’m hoping to get one in the future.

My engine isn’t a super high performance piece,  It’s a stroked 390.  I thought that with the 5lbs for now, it’d be ok, HP numbers wouldn’t be crazy, I’m sure there’s other factors involved to be careful with.  I don’t beat on it too much (honestly) and I don’t drive it that much either . I wasn’t sure how the car would run when just cruising around.  I read about cold/hot start problems, maybe it’s just trial and error.  There’s the option to purchase the E98 pure race fuel online also.  Say the engine with the 5lb boost is 600HP

Was having thoughts of trying E85 in the galaxie.   With all this social distancing and being limited with where you can go and what you can do, I’ve been enjoying many extra cold beverages.  Those cold beverages helped me purchase a centrifugal supercharger online. At 11:1, the  current build in the galaxie wasn’t planned for boost, but thought I could still maybe have some fun, if I could get it set up . The galaxie is just a street car, no bracket racing or anything.  I believe the SC provides up to 8lbs of boost or so, which I’d try to adjust lower to 5lbs or so using the MSD boost control box.  I see some “kits”, with a quickfuel 750 blow thru E85, an Aeromotive regulator and fuel pump 11101 , fuel sample tester tube, etc.  I was already re working the fuel lines,  would have to increase those obviously.  I’m sure there’s other things on list to do, but would it work ok on a street vehicle?  I’ve read the a few of the  pros and cons lists online, so I have a general idea of what to look for.  In Wisconsin and E85 is readily available, thought I’d ask.  The vehicle only sees about 4-500 miles a season.   Any thoughts relative to this scenario?  Thanks.

Out of curiosity, what did it set you back to have them spruce up your headers? I’ve had a set of “ceramic” hookers on the car for 10 years, they’re rusty as hell.  Those look great.

Did they say they have blocks in stock?  Out of curiosity, how much was shipping? Was the transaction good overall?  Thanks, been looking for a while.

Jay, it’s a bummer your having some issues, hopefully things get squared away in the near future.  I’m excited to hear about your collection and hopefully incorporate your products in my next build.  I’m slowly (understatement) gathering some parts, and following the forums to gather some knowledge and info, and will hopefully equate into a beastly engine for the ol’ Ford.
