i agree, the supercharger wont be providing full gains without a good set of heads, but if ur gonna supercharge in the near future go with the AFR 185s...

posted this on your other thread, but try both s/c and heads

s/c plus these ported heads would be good combo for not much money

So is that thumperoforangepark.com a reputable guy? Im thinking of going that route for heads. Anyone have any feedback on those heads?

your buying the base paxton kit, once you start putting bigger heads and exhaust and such you will not get the boost it advertises, that is for a stock motor, you will need to buy a power pipe, upgraded pullies that alone will make up the difference it would cost to just buy the better 8-10 psi kit.... do the right thing... buy a nice set of heads then put a 75 shot on it all less than 2,000= 12 second stang bam!!!
