3)Exactly what issues would this cause with cam timing and combustion chamber shape, can someone elaborate on this. Because im not gonna attempt it if it will cause problems elsewhere.
4)What about this makes me a baby
5)If I were to supercharge it the way it is, would I be able to safely tune it with just a safc-2 and a lm-1

1)the answer to the first part of the question is in the second part of the question.
2)you would need new, possibly custom head bolts also. those would be fun to make
3)no expert on combustion chamber design, but as stated, it would reduce the quencing ability of the quench areas. i don't know how much that would harm the combustion process but in some engines it can kill any gains you hope to make in other areas. the SCC article referenced earlier was in the october '06 issue in the dear dave column. i can't find it on the website so head to your library, it's a good read. post up what you get on here, i'm curious now.
4)you are trying to half-ass something? i don't know, i didn't say it.
5)get a Bikirom, fuel and timing control and you can easily upgrade injectors, mafs, etc. and it's only like $450.
on a general note, 5 psi coming out of a non intercooled supercharger is a lot different than 5 psi out of a small turbo. some superchargers aren't too effecient and heat up the air a lot. no actual facts to offer you, just urguing you to research it some more.
