I think they look sooo manly on older classic muscle cars but i have never once seen one on a newer car.

Probably not what you're looking for but Saleen SuperShaker's come out of the hood. Not like the old school chrome blower's that are coming to mind with this thread but That's all that I know of. Here's a link you can check out:

Edit: Didn't notice until after my post that you're driving a V6 stang. Don't know of any applications that will work for your setup.

thats closer than anything i knew of, thanks =)

id have to get a manual v8 before i ever thought of doing something like that if the option was available lol. just wanted to know if those old school style ones were out there for newer models

yes they do but its normaly refered to as a "blower" type set up. unlike most sc systems the actual intake is that HUGE scoop your thinking of,not an under the hood intake system attached to the sc. if im mistaken somone correct me.

The old style superchargers sticking through the hood is more a function of, well, function rather than form. The superchargers used on those cars are generally from 71 series Detroit Diesel engines. They're far from the most efficient design for a supercharger (especially by modern standards), and are physically pretty massive. But it's what was available at the time in the 50's and 60's. Keep in mind, the basic design of this engine and supercharger dates back to an introduction in the 30s.

Of course, with a setup like that, you'd also need to work with carburetors, as I don't think there's any feasible way to hook up a MAF style system. So, with a modern computer controlled car, it'd be a hard sell. That said, you can purchase new 8-71 superchargers from JEGS, manufactured by Weiand. And if you have the fabricating skills, can probably make an intake to hook it to a late model block. So, yes, they still make those superchargers. But I'm sure no one makes a kit to fit it to a modern Mustang.

The latest issue of MM&FF has an S197 on the cover with a blower like that. Pretty sick build.
