    It sounds like a Paxton Blower(super charger).......some people say, "Injection is nice,but I'd rather be blown"

    I've done four centrifugal builds with Prochargers, similar to the Paxton. They make great power and are pretty efficient. I've done 700-830+ rwhp on 91 octane with them, and you can go further than that.

    Not positive on Ford kits, but the universal Chevy's start at about $2200. or so without an intercooler.
