Wish they had the bugs worked out on this car. It didnt run to good because it was a dog outta the whole . But at the 330 it turned it on.

and last 1. I think its best pass was a 7.40. For some reason they had a glide on it and it didnt get outta the hole. At the 330 mark though it got gone . I think it was only 60 ftn 2.1's

Looks like a DOHC in there. That would mean an '03 Cobra motor. Confirm?

definately a dohc motor, could be out of the mach though. Dont understand why someone would go through all the trouble to remove the stock supercharger to put a centrifugal one in? (cost?)

I think more torque

I can understand Fazm's skepticism because a twin-screw would seem the more logical choice to me for this car if I were going to switch blowers. Some of the larger centrifugals make more peak hp/tq than does the typical rootes or twin screw, but of all the different kinds of superchargers, wether you are discussing a turbo, rootes, twin screw, or centrifugal, the centrifugal offers the worst power curve in modern applications. They are totally rpm dependent for their power delivery and relatively innefficient compared to most other superchargers.

They do have their advantages, as IMO this type of supercharger is preferable on a street-driven motor where you might be making a lot of torque low in the rpm range anyway and traction could be an issue (like a blown 427 or 460). Also, in pure drag-racing applications the centrifugal blowers peaky power delivery is not as big a deal as on a street car since the motor is going to be running on full boil the whole time anyway. Finally, their is the nostalgia aspect a centrifugal brings for some folks.

But, on a car that would appear to be a street/strip compromise like the one above I would definately rather upgrade to a twin-screw than a centrifugal. This is especially true on a motor like the 03 Cobra's where the twin-screw is just a straight-up bolt-on replacement.

But, everyone has their own opinion and their own preference. The guy with the money and the title gets to build the car, and so long as he likes it that is the only opinion that matters.

What is the size of those slicks?!!!Please don't tell me something like..."We changed out the whole rearend and we stuck 15" wheels on it." I like the way those look! Did they hook great or what?

Looks good, but I know it will do alot better than that.
Most likely the person doesnt have the camera setup to current date

The ken bell blowzilla would be ideal if you ask me, like isaylor said, its direct bolt, and is capable of 22 psi with mostly stock parts and up to 27 psi with upgraded parts (about 711hp at the wheels)


EDIT: So maybe it is the dohc mach1 motor, because then, its not a direct bolt on replacement, and yes, then i would go with a centrifigul

centrifugal is a better blower for drag use and it appears that this car is a drag specific car.....a twin screw or a roots type is better for street use!!!!
