Supercharger for 351W?

I have a 351 Windsor Engine for my 1970 mustang coupe and was wondering what kind of supercharger I should get?

Have you checked out Paxton Superchargers? I think also Stillen makes one. Not sure if they have for your application, but you can start there. Hope that helps.

Make sure, unless youve extensivly modified your 351, make sure you get a roots style blower. Or a twin screw. Do not get a centrifugal because they dont make they're peak boost untill higher RPM's and thats not what the 351 was made for. With a roots, or twin screw you'll get the most of you boost at loqer RPM's and lots more torque which is what you want for your style engine. Make sure the compressor (6-71, 8-71, 12 or even 14-71) matches your engine size/setup as it will make for a mroe efficiant blower getting you more bang for your buck. If you want to use a centrifugal make sure you get a better, stronger, and lighter weight vavle springs/train as it'll make your 351 able to handle slightly higher RPM's without damaging your engine.

You can also check out the ATI ProCharger at http://www.procharger.com/procharger3.html

one of my buddies but a supercharger on his 69 mustang that had a 351W in it and it blew it up real good make shure that you bottom end can take that abuse just rembember all motors that are run under boost are totally diffrent everything is more critical than itsounda
