Whipples are very reliable--as well as Magnachargers. Whipple does not currently make a plug-n-play application for the L19 454. Neither does the Magnacharger. Vortech makes one for the 5.7L 350, but not the 7.4L 454. S/C the 100k 454 is not out of the question, it's just that you will need to slightly freshen it when you slap the S/C on... I would recommend a Manga/Radix. Contact them directly and see what they can do for you...

There is a member over on fsc that has a slammed dually with a whippled 454. His name is physh1 you might get in contact with him and ask him a few questions.

The whipple will last forever under tough conditions. I would slap a whipple on it just because of the low end torque and it will last. There are whipple kits all over ebay for the 454 you just need a little time. They are rebuildable also.
An sts turbo might not be bad either, but the oil issue is what I would not like.
