Oh John what do you know about supercharger setups.

Yes I have a aftercooler. I will be spraying a 75 TNT shoot to get out of the hole. Do you all think this would be a problem for the blower? What injectors and pump should I get? Thanks for your help guys.

all you need is 12-13 lbs and maybe a cam. you don't need juice to get that number.
you'll need big injectors and the t rex fuel pump should be fine.
MTI should be able to help you figure all that out.

you don't need the spray. Just a well setup system with a 2.5" pulley and a good aggressive tune.
Adding a 75 shot should make for enough power to run 9's in a decent combo.

What size injector's are you guy's using? People been telling me to use 50lbs and even 60lbs inj. I have set of AFR's coming in a about two weeks and I am going to use a solid roller. That should help.

Well you can't buzz a 2.50 pulley setup high, so I'm not sure how that is will work with a solid roller... mods in conflict with each other to some extent.
I would look into the 60 lb Mototrons they seem to ideal decent if you use an adjustable regulator.

If your going with good heads and a solid roller and a 375 ci motor I have to wonder why your using a V9?
Your power output is limited by the V9. It's entirely possible you will not make any more power than a 346 with mildly ported heads and a stock cam. Although your boost level will be much lower and easier to manage. But it seems like a mismatched combo to me.
I'm running 42.5lb Lucas at 62psi and a single 9th mechanical injector of about 50lbs/hr.

John,I run my V9 up to around 70K which is at about 6350 engine rpm with a 2.5" and 8" pulley combo. I see about 13psi in cool weather at that speed with the intercooler. It is holding up real well. Bearings are still real tight.
I could see taking it a little bit further as boost does keep rising, but I think after 70K your really pushing your luck with the bearings and drive system.
