Nice. It says comparison so are they the same thing or what are what exactly are they comparing ?
Thinking back through your combo...
A Kenne Bell would go pretty well.

It would be a hell of a lot more fun on the street.
They eat T5s tho
Yeah, that's about it. Herritage is a little louder. Little more whistle. Going down the road at steady throttle it sounds like it does when he revs it up. That high pitched compressor sound. It doesn't really get any louder as it boosts up. Or at least I can't hear it over the exhaust lol.
They are a little easier on the drive train and traction because they ramp up power. The Kenne Bell is right now.
Oh ok. I hear a tad bit more wine or whistle with the blue one
So how much more fun as and how much potential how much more potential horsepower?Thinking back through your combo...

And how much more cost lol? That V3 out the door at about 3,800 sounds very very good . If the engine blows up at some point I'm going to do another engine and will either do a stock block 331 or 347 or Dart Big bore probably 347
Gotcha gotcha . Yeah I might just save that extra money and go with the regular V3
whose cars are those and is it one owner of both? I'm actually looking for a clean fox too
. I'd like to wait till I get my other garage done and get these 2 cars done too lol. The 94 I mean it's done but just want more out of the engine despite the mileage. The 95 is the one I'm waiting on the builder to find a good stock block that'll pass sonic testing . He has the 4th one now he's hoping this one will.do you have tips and such and info on your SC install , installing the guages, ect? I might actually tackle mine myself just depends on my final list and what all I'll need to change. I know I'll need to send the chip to the tuner to get a startup tune and everything too. If I go as planned and let Scott at Extreme do it, he will take the car to Dan at Pro Dyno not far from him. I feel comfortable letting Scott do it because he has blower cars and had been in the game for 30 plus years. I've installed gauges but the ones I'll get that needs to be installed are the mechanical boost vaccum, elec fp, and digi wideband air fuel. As for those I'd just need to watch a video of how exactly those are hooked up and what goes to what on the blower, ect.
gkomo
now i can hopefully expect to receive the shaft
Read through my progress thread. I am a novice when it comes to this stuff but I bought my mustang purposefully as a project car to learn how to do things… so my progress thread is written kind of from that point of view.
I don’t take a ‘ton’ of pics but I feel like I do a decent job of my step by step process, and issues I run into and how I solve them. I believe the supercharger install specifically starts around page 35-ish in my thread?
If I can do it anyone can do it.
is there a seperate hanger to buy if I'm going with the 340 pump ( for the 95 331 and V3 build 500-535 whp)? I've seen the hanger and pump combo but not just the hanger.
also @AeroCoupe
google brought me back to this thread lol

You don't need another pump unless yours is bad.
Even if that's true, you still don't need a 340.
I'm not sure about the hanger. I run more boost than you do on a 255L HP and 42# injectors. With a 340, you'd just be recycling more gas through the return.

this is for the 95 build lol. I thought I said that in the post a little earlier and by the way I did add this question to my build thread for that car.
With a fresh 331 build and a V3 I'll be over 500 and likely around 535 as I just seen a combo tuned by DynotuneMP via Anderson FM done. So with that wheel hp the 255 will not work.
255L HP with good voltage is good for about 500-550 crank plus or minus.
A 340L with good voltage has more headroom can take you to 600 HP+.
If you're planning on E85 [then] I'd be looking at the 450L.
I do not recall all of the specifics for your 95 build other than the stroke you just mentioned.

I will be at the 500-550 to the wheels though so at the crank 550-600 or maybe 575-625 crank
The 340 is good for 800 NA crank and 750 boosted/turbo crank
this is from my post when started yesterday, made a few changes today to the below:
331 Stock block build
Holley Systemax 2 (more than likely since I've had a Performer 2 for so long on my other 302 setup and it's now on my Vortech '94)
Brodix 170 degree cc head with 1.94 and 1.54 valves
Custom blower cam
60 lbs ( I bought lightning 42's for when I was going to go NA so might sell them)
70 Tb
90 Maf if I don't go Terminator X
1 5/8th Bbk LT's with an X and Spintech 6000's street pro
Mcleoud Super Street Pro I already bought for NA and hope it will hold up since looks like it's rated at 550/550 crank. I will likely be around at minimum 500 but I've seen a guy make 535 recently. It seems keeping the rpm's no more than 6k and a good tune and the block will be safe.
UPR boostmaster pipe
Vortech V3
255 walbro with stock fuel system (now gonna go 340)
3.55 gears
