Looking for a Root style supercharger for a 302 Ford.
I'm looking to build an engine with a Root Style Supercharge for my 302. The only one I can seem to find is Weiand 174.
Weiand 174
Is this correct?
Thanks.

That weiand 174 wont give you the desired results with a 350 block. i would go with a 6-71 and underdrive it. Just my opinion.

The problem with a GMC blower on a small block Ford is, the distributor is in the way of the drive. Some guys put the blower on the bottom half of a tunnel ram manifold, raising it up above the distributor.

All the more reason to get a chevy, lol only playin with ya. if thats the problem id go with a paxton or a vortech you know? they are whole lot more efficient and i have friends of mine with mustangs that are running vortech superchargers and are putting some serious horsepower numbers down like 650 at the wheels with a 331!!! running a vortech (s)trim and a tremic 5 speed in a 97 mustang 650 at the wheels!!! its insane. later,Joe
