Couldn't the 350 TBI truck systems work with the TBI vehicles? I don't see what would be the problem. Does anybody have a link or any info on S/C cars with carbs (or TBI) and a stock hood?

Here's a pic of my Paxton on my 305 TBI

This is basically the truck kit, with a few modifications. But I'm not exactly sure what's different from the truck kit since my kit was made just for my car (called Paxton directly, and as far as I know it was the last F-Body TBI kit they ever made, they don't, and won't make them anymore from what I here).

From the pictures of the truck install ATI did on a 94 pickup there are no mods to install this on our cars so long as your alternator and ps pump are on the driver's side. The kit will **** the alternator to the middle of the engine then the blower goes between the alternator and ps pump

1988 Camaro
305 bored .030 over
Stock TBI
Aluminum radiator
No smog pump
gutted factor cleaner
cam ground to crane specs
timing advanced 9 degrees
no thermostat
other than that its bone stock and ran a 16.4 @ 82 mph with earth shattering wheel hop and a 2.88 60 ft time. (this was with the rebuild and cam only)

 

How could it be that last kit? That's a real let down. How do they sell kits for people wanting to SC and want to keep ther carb cars with stock hood. I don't get it, truck kit but now low profile kit.

How much did that Paxton blower cost?
Where can I find them useD?
Model number?

------------------
1992 Pontiac Firebird
- 5.0L V8 TBI
- Automatic Trans

 

What kind of supercharger? Centrifugal or roots style and the like?

I have a low profile B&M 177 on top of my big block and the entire throttle body sticks out of the hood. I can't imagine a small block setup fitting either. Although, with a 2" cowl on a Camaro you might have a decent chance. Firebird is not likely because the blower snout sticks through the downsloping hood. I am using an aftermarket programmable 4-barrel throttle body injectino system.
