New to supercharging, need some pointers
Draw 3D:
Feeling cold is not proof of maintaining a 64° cooling charge as you stated.

Manifold temp probe says it does
jeff/21:
on the BBC tried various types but ended up with copper and o-rings

Jeff, CRAP, I'm not o-ringing this block. Not now at least. You can buy those copper head gaskets that have something more to them than just a sheet of copper. Maybe others have had success with that?
dreracecar. For sure methanol runs cooler but I suspect the probe is reading condensation. The condensation would be able to happen if the fuel wasn't running cooler but I have a feeling were' talking about two different things. Since I figured how how to go fast NA, I've always used methanol and will never use gas again if I have a say in it.
I'm feeling like we'd better run 12:1 or just shy. I've always been a high compression believer but I respect the opinions I've heard here and I think 12:1 or even 11:1 would be a good compromise. Like one member said, a 671 has it's limitation.
How about a hemi blower intake? That's the one thing we're struggling to find used. Any tips would be awesome.

Typo, the condensation WOULDN'T be able to happen if the fuel wasn't running cooler.
