Twin eaton supercharged TPI, and it might even fit under the stock hood and work with the cowl hood of mine. :cheers:

Those are supercharders off The Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. They go for $500 a piece.

Not sure if he did for max performance or just to prove it could be done. Wonder if it gives more low end then a supercharger?:confused: Guess I cousl ask. :)

I wouldn't go for it. Double the maintenace, very hard to set valves, hard to get at the plugs, the mounting for the superchargers would have to be vary rigid or the superchargers would throw belts.
Give me one larger supercharger right in the middle :)

BB wowbagger. I would prefer a 10-71 over my 8-71 but I got a deal on the 8-71 $4000CDN, the 10-71 would still fit without distributor interference but I am not sure about the 14-71. Each step up in the blower size adds 1 inch to the length. My distributor clears fine with this setup.
I have no problem running 12 psi boost but it is overdriven by 15%. With a larger supercharger I would still run the same 12 psi but could slow the blower down to keep the mixture cooler.
