Default Blower Questions

Gentlemen,
You may have saw the other thread that I now have a wealthy friend that is going to buy me parts. I really want to eventually put a blower in it, which means ordering it soon. What am I going to have to do to install a blower? I seem to remember that I might have to put a better fuel pump in there, or a dual one. What about clearance in there? Am I going to have to take some stuff out to make the blower fit? What else am I going to have to do for this? I am a newb when it comes to things like this. I will have a big cam in there before I get to the blower.

I say use the search function first to get you started, that will answer most of your questions.

If your going to do a blower. I would hold off on the cam and have a custom blower cam made for your application. And It depends on what your planing on doing. If you go all out lots of custom things need to be done, or you can just buy a complete kit that comes with everything you need from jegs/summit etc.

If you've got the sponsor's money as you make it sound, go kick *** or go home! By that, I mean use a fookin fuel injected roots on that thing!!

EDIT: I found the "go big or go home" for you, and this just screams for everyone ELSE to go home!!
