Maybe Ya'll know...

I already asked this in the Supercharging forum, but no answer yet so I figured Id ask the next best or maybe the best place. Were can I get a Paxton/Powerdyne type supercharger for an FE. Ive seen them on the 427 and 428 Shelby's of old and the new kit cars, but I cant seem to find them, any ideas?

You probably need to be looking for an intake manifold first. I think the only company that migt be still making an FE supercharger manifold is Blue Thunder. You might start with DSC motorsprts and see what they know.

You might be able to catch a manifold on eBay as well. I know there was one a while back. Expect to spend about a grand or better. I don't even know where to start for the belts and pulleys etc!

BDS has complete kits for 3400.00 I think Freightrain runs one. Also hampton blowers has F.E. kits. Lots of information on their sites. Good luck

I know about BDS but those arent centrifigul superchargers, like the paxtons are. The centrifigul type is pully drivin i beleive but i dont think the require a special manifold. Corrections?

You are correct. The centrifugal blowers don't require a special manifold. You just have to have the bracket and ducting for it. I am trying to remember who makes them but my mind is at a blank.
