So instead of looking yourself, you were wanting us to find it?

From what I gather it seems as though it is just a supercharged ls3. But the ls3 has what 430hp? + the 100hp added by the sc thats only 530hp. Where does the other 90hp come from?

Why are we limiting the S/C to a 100 HP limit? It's more than capable of producing more, especially with better heads and a cam to match. Not to mention it probably has titanium valvues etc. so they can push the rpm's higher as well.
