Re: Supercharged C3 (Ryan77)
Has anyone tried a 350 w/ a TPI unit plus a blower (C4 style)?? This seems like the setup to me. I was thinking a 383, w/ high flow heads an a TPI unit with maybe a Paxton supercharger. Since I got rid of my clutch fan and fan shroud, I have tons o'room up front (no P/S or A/C).
Would this setup fit under the hood of a C3?:
Has anyone tired a "carb" style supercharger with either a Holley TBI unit of Edelbrock fuel injection unit?

Re: Supercharged C3 (69side)
I have a Paxton SN60 kit to put on the 69. I will be putting it on my 412 small-block (not built up yet). I will take some pics of the brackets and blower this weekend if I get some time. I will not be doing it for a while. I gotta put the LT1 in the 71 first!

Re: Supercharged C3
In that first photo in this thread, it looks just like the Paxton setup on an Avanti with an R2 engine. I have an R3 and it has a full carburetion box enclosing the entire carb. unit, Shelby Mustangs had the same setup too. Is this a debate mostly as to if it'll fit with a big block motor or any C3 Vette motor?

Re: Supercharged C3 (Twinnie)
It has even been done on a crossfire

Does all of that fit under a stock C4 hood?
In regards to drivability, who has experience with a supercharged C3, regardless of style and configuration?
:D
