very involved question

[Jthomas]

am i missing something here? why not just buy a blower kit for it? they sell the complete kits in jegs with manifold and everything......

it would be a blower with a dual tunnel ram, it would be something different, everybody and their cousin has done a blower build and same with a dual tunnel ram, you almost never see a car that has both a blower and dual tunnel ram on the same engine, even if the hp gain is marginal over each piece by itself it is still cool looking.

You can look at it like turbo vs supercharger, turbo will almost always make more power than a supercharger but you go with the supercharger just so you can have that scoop sticking out of the hood and any would be street racer will be able to look and say. "Ok don't want to challenge him."

I'd put money on the blower every time.

Turbos don't make more power.

so heres something to ad to this very involved question.  so what would happen if you put a turbo, a blower and a super charger onto the same engine?

A supercharger and blower are the same thing. It's like calling a chevy cobalt a car.

Just one is more specific than the other. There are many superchargers: screws chargers, blowers, and centrifugal chargers.

My dads friend builds custom engines for some big off shore boats, and they are twin screw chargers and twin turbo.

When u go that extreme, you get into custom manifolds and everything else.

lol blower and supercharger are the same thing but putting a turbo on it would be all kinds of wrong in a good way.  Just look at the bugatti veyron super sport it is quad turbo and twin supercharged and it makes 1100hp and that is severely under powered for the setup, using that setup on a V12 detroit diesel would put it up to about 2000hp but made more for torque than hp so it should say something about how powerful the 350 would be with the setup being more for hp than torque.
