considering the vortec has a 100% failure rate in it's stock form, i dont' see any other option than the turbo. Not to mentino you'll make more hp/tq as well.

What would be needed to make a stock SVT turbo-ready? the ADC kit is 5500 bucks already. I know you need a LSD which is about 1100. What else tho?

An upgraded clutch would help tremendously. A stock SVT clutch with low miles can(as Warmonger has proven) hold up to the power for a while.

A zetec FD would be of great benefit.

Looking at the Jackson Racing supercharger right now. $2795 US from JR,and it comes with a 2 year 100k mi warranty. 6 to 8 hour bolt on application. Seems to make sense to me.
