The Vortech supercharger that I want is a vortech s-trim and I believe puts out 9 lbs of boost.

My engine has about thirty thousand miles on it (rebuilt)

This guy that I work with builds 7 second dragster engines so I think that he knows what he is doing and I trust his judgement so I am going to get him to help me out on the install, but he is really busy so wont be able to help me with the prep work.

So I need 255 lph fuel pump, probably 36 # injectors and a good ignition system.

Have any of you ever heard of a supercharged car with mass-air I have talked to one guy that says that it will work but I dont know if I trust his judgement or not.

And about engine cooling that is a no brainer for me since my radiator is a POS

As far as what the supercharger comes with it says the it is a complete kit whatever that means.

Thanks for the good info: Any additional info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
