Default Super Charger Ideas??

When i bought this car the guy had plans for a super charger... so he rebuilt the motor put good internals in it but he put FRPP heads on it that raise the compression to 10:1.
my question what would be the best set up to use.
ive been looking at procharger but i requested for dealer info and the closest one to me is 100 miles away, and the still didnt answer my questions on how much boost i can run with out poping the engine and they wont give me a price till i buy it.

thats sounds lame. what kind of place wont give an estimate. Go with another brand. There more then just procharger and all the centi superchargers are pretty well made. Or go Roots

What type of good internals do you have? Forged rods and pistons? Forged crank? The compression is a little higher than normally desired for boost which will affect your timing but how much boost you can run really depends on what "good internals" mean.

If you are running forged rods, pistons and crank then you'll want to get the D-1SC kit. Others will know more than I how compression affects boost, but you could probably start out with 12 psi. Increasing boost is simply a matter of changing a pulley. And with that system you will run out of fuel before you run out of boost.

But I wouldn't suggest buying anything until you find out what really inside your motor.
