Another vote for ditching the blower and getting everything else setup first.

I know it's a hard decision, as I've been wanting to get a ProCharger on mine every time spring rolls around. But, looking back, I'm very happy where I am in terms of the overall build-up of the car: First came all the 'usual bolt-ons' (gears, complete exhaust, pulleys, etc.) then came heads/cam/intake, then a Tremec/King Cobra Clutch/Alum. Fly/Steel bell and just recently my new 331! So, next up is suspension, Bogart's, some real drag tires, Auburn Pro, 31 splines, and brakes. THEN, I think it will finally be ready for a blower.

A long and expensive road, but it's all worth it!
