supercharger

Post by 1970f100x »

Would it be possible, if not reasonable to put a super charger in my 70 f100? Have any of you done it, could you show pictures?

hood clearance may depend on the charger you want.

I looked this up once. all I did was google it, and found something. The thing I couldn't figure out was how it would work with a carb intake.

I'm not aware of any ready built "kit".

Blower Drive Service and Blue Thunder both make intakes for a GMC 4/6/8-71 style roots blower and there have been some paxton/vortech insatlled (even as duals) but it is all custom.

I'd say putting either on a stock 360 is a recipie for pistons in the oil pan.

It would fair well just cant push a stock cast piston over about 5-8 PSI. I may run one someday on my 428 powered 64 Fairlane.

vortech and powerdyne belt driven s/c's can be fabbed to fit anything you want. it's just a matter of plumbing the intake and intercooler if you run one.
