SB supercharger......

i think it would go boom quick. you need a bullet proof bottom end girdle studs maybe splayed bolts and 7.5 to 8.0 compression. and blow thru carbs and a good fuel system or it will fry like a cutting torch is inside the cylinders.jmo

WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the mr norms paxton car were completley stock bottom end,, 8 or 8.5 compression,, no bottom end gridel...and used a thermo quad in the carb box,,,

god luck finding one of those set ups,,, i know where one is but it will never come out of the box it is packed away in,,

but you can go with a modern version,paxton belt driven front mounted or a pro charger,,,blow thru carb,,good pair of headers,,blower cam,,felpro O-RING reinforced head gaskets,,,make sure the heads are surfaced,,surfacing the block would also insure a good seal at the head ,, or you could have the heads or block O-RINGED,,

for pump gas,,make sure you are under 8.5 compression,,cc the motor,, dont assume that if you have pistons advertised for 8.5 that the actual compression it true,,if you can get a pair of 8.0 or even 7.5 compression pistons ide do that,,,
the most important thing on a blower motor as far as driveablity is the carbs,,out of the box carbs wil not work properly,,,you can buy them prepped for a blower,, weather they sit on top or blow thru,,,once your carbs are dialed in for the octane gas you plan to use,,stick to it,,more octane will not make it go faster,,and some times will slow it down,,,the main thing is NOT TO LEAN IT OUT,,,,pump gas 93 with out a good timing computer,,will only support 9 pounds of boost, call a place caled BIG AL,S TOY BOX in mass,, he has some killer deals on complete blower motors,,for roots style blowers like mine in the pic 340 X block,, 4 bolt main 7.76 compression ultradyne solid cam 2 holley 650s that flow 862 each,4 speed,
