I guess it really depends on the blower, the stock Eaton its the most innefficient blower out there. Is there any kit out there for foxes which involves roots or twin screws?

keene bell makes one, (the only one i think) but its really old design, and NOT very efficient at all!



This is on a 1995 5.0




most just go with a procharger, and they make good power as im sure you know.

yep.

ive seen guys put the smallest pulley possible on them, and still not make over 400hp. very inefficient design.

Prochargers on the other hand work wonders, and kits are damn "cheap" for boost. I would like to go that route if I dont have enough money to build the 408w I'd like to here in about two years.

for now the h/c/i/nitrous and other mods is quite satisfying.
