I was wondering I wanted to supercharge my Camaro but my car is carbureted. I was looking at roots type blowers but I was wondering about hood clearance. I know it will not fir under a stock hood but what about a SS hood? I was been researching manifold & blower highest the blower sits aprox. 4-inches taller than a Performer RPM manifold. With the largest drop base on the market you think I could clear it? Or maybe a TBI bonnet? And use a remote air filter?

 

a holley 144 should fit under a 2.5" cowl hood

 

I think you'd need a little more than a 2.5" cowl to put a mini-blower on your car with an air cleaner.

Want hood clearance? Go with a centrifugal

 

Yea but centrifugal needs a blow through carb. I just bought a new carb so I don't want to go out and buy another new carb.

 

just rebuild it for a blow through app. it shouldn't be that hard. then again, it might. you could probably find someone who could do it for you.

 

Places like The Carb Shop can rebuild your carb for you precisely for your engine combination ...Although, they can be a bit pricy. But, in the end you'll have something capable of insane horsepower (unlike a mini-blower)
