5.0 supercharger options
My bodywork and minor mechanical work is almost done. I plan on not starting mods til next summer but my 1st mod will be a supercharger and the components. Its between the vortech s trim and the kenne bell. Im leaning toward the kenne bell cuz the sound and the power. I neeeeeeeeeeed opinionssss

I don't know why but vortech has always turned me off for some reason. Between the 2 I would go for the Kenne Bell.
Have you given any thought to Pro-charger ?

I read Muscle mustang and Fast Fords magazine a lot. I have often thought that for your weekend warrior or daily driver I would go for the Kenne Bell, but if I was doing serious racing and competing there is no question it would be a Pro Charger. With a procharger power is unlimited they have blowers that surport like 3,000 horsepower or something rediculous.
According to Muscle mustang and Fast Fords magazine a twin screw like the kenne bell is going to deliever the best low end torque. Twin screws must be good because ford put one on the Ford GT.

Explain more about this snaping of the nose? I have never heard of that?

I have a deal running on powerdyne right now. Full 9psi kit for 1599.00. They are sweet kits for the 86-93 5.0L mustangs. I sell the procharger kit as well and they make a damn good supercharger. between them all (and i may lose business on this) I recommend the Kenne Bell. Procharger is almost $4200 at the most expensive. Procharger still offers a lot of kit for the money.

Huh? I thought we were talking about superchargers for Rangers?
When I was running my Kenne Bell at 7-8psi, it was absolutely a sleeper. The Kenne Bell is not like a Roots, it doesn't start to whine until it is in the 10-12psi range. You would never know I had a Kenne Bell or any other S/C on my Ranger when I was running at 7-8psi.
Plus, with all of the low RPM (where you normally run the engine) torque, the Kenne Bell kicks serious ***. It may not have the 5-6K RPM capability of a centrifugal, but for daily driving, trailer towing, and off road, NOTHING will beat a positive displacement screw supercharge, accept more stoke (AKA 408-427 cu in windsor)

kbs and whipples are screw-type and more efficient than the roots-type i.e. eatons and magna chargers.
speaking of screws, screw you leo.
turbos are getting more popular too. there are a few turbo lightning conversions that have been done lately. check this one out...
