Yes it would look badass depending on the year of your car? But also remember that you will generally spend alot of time tunning a constantly fixing with a draw thrue setup. You look at that '34 roadsters with the roots blown 350 at all the hotrod shows. The one with 3 old men around it tryin to get it started. Thats just typical of draw thrue setups. That is part of the reason Skyline and I are advising that you to consider blow thru. I guess the questions you need to ask yourself are: How often do I want to drive this car? How far do I want to drive this car? How much $$ do I have for this car? And last but not least, do you want your car to look better? Or run better? Its up to you. You can have a cool clean looking badass street car, or a badass looking sometimes running always tuning street car. Talk to people who have built the kind of motor you are wanting to build with the roots blower. Then talk to people who have built blow thru turbo or supercharged motors. Then decide what you would prefer.

To be honest with you I wish I had done more research before I bought my blower. I could have gotten it cheaper, or preferably gone turbo. I would have no worries about my front main bearing if I had gone with a turbo. I wont be keeping the blower long after my car is running, atleast thats how I'm feeling now. All this may change when I drive the car for the first time. We will just have to see. But good luck to you in whatever form of power you go for. They each have their perks.

Which is better? I really could not say. Go look at TM and see what they have for info. After I bought the 205s, I stopped looking at heads.

To tell you the truth, I am not sure what the A/R is, I'll take a measurement to day.
