Default Supercharger

Im considering adding a supercharger (weiand 177) to my engine when Im rebuilding it next winter

Is this the right kit for a 1968 vette (NOM 350 smallblock)

Are there enough space for the pulleys? I will be installing electric fans and a big alu radiator.

Will it fit without requiring the front crossmember to be notched to give enough belt clearance?

As long as the motor is where it's intended to be, no cross member mods are needed. Even for the 3" Gilmer drives
