Haven't been on here for a long while since I parked my 93 GT, sold the termi and got a 2013 5.0 for my daily. I really miss driving my 93 GT around and hope in the next few months I can start restoring her. In the past was debating the 331 vs 351w, or coyote vs terminator swap. Was leaning toward the termi swap considering I had an 03 before and loved the way it drove compared to my coyote. After hours of reading forums, etc I think I'd be happy with a street friendly 306/331 with low boost. I have a unopened paxton sl1220 already or may sell that for a single turbo such as on3.
Anyways, all this got me thinking... why not go with a pd/roots style supercharger. I remembered Kenne Bell made one for the foxbody, so looked it up. Was surprised and disappointed to see they discontinued them. I'm sure that's old news for most of you (told you, I have been out of the fox game for awhile). So, started researching some more. Perhaps whipple made one or another company took over the kenne bell design. Haven't found anything. Only thing I could find was a few forums of people several years ago who made their own adapters to use Eaton blowers. Great idea! With something like that, you could even upgrade the eaton at some point to something else. Let me look that up and see how much an adapter is. Can't find anything! Was hoping to find someone selling their own fabricated adapter or company that put together an Eaton kit for foxbody mustangs. I wonder, would it just cost too much to fabricate something like this? Is the Eaton just not an efficient enough blower? Too much heat soak?
Looking around online, I stumbled across the Weiand supercharger for a 289/302 and this got me thinking. I'm wondering can this be made to work with efi? If so, perhaps this could be a good alternative to a kenne bell? Any thoughts on this or other pd/root style ideas? Thanks
