I didnt know that was feasible. What steps does one need to take to prevent high compr issues?

Guy on facebook has a m122 bolted to a 2v with trickflow heads. He said the m122 bolts straight onto the heads. How does that work when they come on gt500s?

Big *** valves & heads with lots of flow. What fuel does he run?

After further facebook creeping, he had a lightning blower set up and just swapped the blower out.

First problem..."a guy on fb"
Second it doesn't bolt the heads. They make adaptor plates though

Alcohol makes sense since my head tells me gasoline could ignite off the compression alone

Trickflows should still have the same intake pattern as stock heads, right? I mean, you don't have to buy a new intake because you got the TF's.

Would it be worth it to do a 00 m112? I know they're leak prone & less desirable. Looking at one on the Lightning HD buy/sale/trade FB page. I'd still have to collect a **** ton of parts, but he only wants $350 for the blower & upper intake. Just don't know if I should hold out till a nice 01-03 unit comes available.

Yes, as long as you have the lower intake and compatible midplate and adaptor
