Super charger kit opinions and facts

So I am toying with the idea of super charging my car or getting the new motor I am saving for. I currently have a GM goodwrench 350 with a mild cam in it with a stealthram on it. I was looking at this kit on summit but with obviously a little retrofit to it for the intake instead of the carb hat. Would it work? and would i be able to use AC with it? My ac is on the drivers side.

Doubt you can keep Driverside AC. That kit looks to use a CS-130 (our normal alternator bolt pattern) on the driverside.

To get that rear exit supercharger to line up with a stealthram or TPI you'd have to probably do 2 huge U bends on the intake. Similar to the old paxton superchargers.

Are you picking that kit due to the price tag? By the time you adjust that kit to work probably have been the same cost of picking up a P1SC intercooled kit. I've seen them go $1000-$2000 range used.

Several manufacturers offer kits that are direct designed for the 88-92 platforms. Wouldn't help you with the AC issue but less fitment issues later on. Several board sponsors provide kits.
