Have you driven the car with the engine in it yet?

I really don't like adding boost unless the rest of the engine is built for it: a cam with forced induction in mind, very low compression ratio, higher quality head gaskets, etc. Also, it's going to be harder with a carb setup and if you keep the carb, then it will need to be converted to a blow-through style.
