I'v spent the past two years building my street rod from the ground up & now that I'v been driving it for a couple months, I'v been thinking about trying to boost the power a little. I think it would look really cool w/ a blower, but not really sure of the cost, or if the stock bottom end will handle it? Has anyone on here done it?

September Hot Rod magazine had an article they took a 4.8 added twin turbos and made 1200 hp with stock bottom end and 118 octane fuel. REALLY check it out.

Hey Tigger, I have the same problem as you, been drivin it for a couple mos, now it feels slow.....lol I saw one with a supercharged small block on it @ a show & it really looked cool. Not sure I'v gotten all I can get outta this thing yet though, it runs good, but not sureI can't squeeze more out of it. My buddy rode in it & says it feels like a mid 11 sec car. I'v never raced, so I'm not sure myself. I had it on the scale the other day & it was 2340lbs with my 250 lb *** in the seat. I thought it would be faster than that. He says I need alot more stall in it, its got 3000 in it now, and it doesn't even feel like there is a converter in it. I'm gonna look into the roots style blower, they look bad ***....lol

I ran a Procharger on my 69 chevelle, with a blow thru carb-it was pretty bullet proof, only thing that worried me was how little of the crank snout actually was in the balancer-I ran an ATI balancer, so I wasn't worried about the balancer-I did like the Procharger on the street better than a turbo I am running now with FI, just something diff, lol

Hi Tommy, I believe the "look" of a 671 is what you ask, thus BDS.
I have made S-97 TBI's for Craig.
These have TWO fuel injectors in each with a flow of 350 cfm.
I would "fit" three inline.
This "inline" fitment will balance the fuel delivery into the Blower with a good plug read and good temperature balance.
These are machined "billet" by John at AccuFab.
