Absolutely.
Kit's from all the major manufacturers are available.
Another great option is turbos. You might send a PM to 10secgoal. They are big into the turbo Mustang scene.
Good luck,

Sure you can. But you'll have to move the alt. But sure it would come with a bracket. Usually the same that holds the blower.

also have to relocate the battery

thanks i was thinking a paxton

but what about a displacement supercharger, like a weiand, or would i need a hole on my hood for one of those

plus, i have an electric fuel pump, how would that do or would i need a mechanical swap?

Any roots blower, even a little 144 will need a cowl hood or a some sort of raised hood. My cousin has a 144 on his and it had a teardrop hood on it.

Stock sleeper would be the paxton blow thru, or a turbo setup.

sweet thanks for the info

on the bracket that comes with kit, that moves my alternator right? and then i can rid of the smog pump eliminator?

also since i have a huge aluminum radiator with a fan off the water pump, would i need to switch to electric for clearance for the supercharger pulley?

Ya, I know, his wiring is a MESS lol


anyhow, you can see sorta how close it is in the front. Its the only picture I have of his engine bay.

To save a little money you could always watch on ebay for a 87-93 Mustang blower kit and make a discharge tube from the blower to the blow through carb. I bet you could get a pretty nice setup for less than $2k that would include the cost of the blower, tubing from the blower to the carb hat and the carb hat. It all depends on how good your fab skills are. IMO it wouldn't take to much effort to connect the blower to the carb.

Just a thought that would save you a couple grand......

Paradise Wheels used to have the SN Paxton kits for $2,000 complete(at least paid that when i got mine)
