I agree with Steve on this one (well on lots of other stuff too)
If you want something to drive everyday and look pretty original otherwise then stick with newer stuff and keep it mild.
A "radical" engine with blower plus other "radical" stuff doesn't add up to a good driving usable truck according to my math.

Don't get me wrong, you should build the truck however you like just so long as it suits your needs and desires, don't build it to please anyone but you.

I like blowers on my engines too, but it's got to be a diesel wink
