Livernois makes some great kits. that can withstand 1,000HP. you won't need all that tolerance but if you have enough money you might be able to use that and a Dart block to make HUGE power out of turbos but that's only if you want a completely strip car

What kind of supercharger? Centri or Twin-screw? With a centri u will probably want something to give u around 9:1 compression and with a twin-screw somewhere around 8.3:1.

The place you buy from is really up to you. But with it being a kenne bell i would make sure the compression was around 8.3:1, especially if you plan on running high boost with it.
