RE: What to consider
So guys, if Im reading this right, I can put in a Vortech Supercharger on my 91 5.0 bone stock motor? As long as it has good compression, does not burn oil? All I have is ford racing headers and with MC o/r h pipe with flowmasters.

Yea, pretty much. Dont run the engine to death though .
You could do nothing buy suspension mods on the car and run like a low 13- high 12 1/4 on a pretty much stock motor. Maybe like an intake and some underdrive pullies.

I dont even drive my car every day. It's more of a weekend warrior type of car. I only have 80k on the car and was thinking about supercharging. But I dint know if it was safe to do so. What other mods will I need? Bigger injectors, better fuel pump?

8lbs of boost you will be fine with the stock injectors and pump i believe or maybe its 6lbs but you should get like an oil temp gauge and crap like that, but you should prolly start you mods with a better top end combo, if you dont want to get to involved with it and save money i would recommend the Trick Flow street heat top end kit its somewhere around $2000-2500
