Ford Forced Induction - Forced Induction
Weiand has been making roots-type blowers for a long time. Now a Holley brand, the Weiand roots-type supercharger, PN 77-174-FSB-1 for the small-block Ford, is still a great unit that some say is better for low-end performance than a typical centrifugal type.
This Boost Cooler by Snow Performance is a good accessory for preventing detonation under heavy throttle.
A turbocharger works like a supercharger except the turbo is driven by exhaust gases while the supercharger is mechanically driven. This big turbo is from Garret.
Add this Snow Safe Injection unit to the Boost Cooler for extra protection. This unit will reduce boost or timing whenever a low water level is detected in the reservoir. The SI-10 unit shown retails for $99.
This cutaway turbocharger shows how the unit differs from the supercharger.
This mock-up of a turbocharger mounting shows how it might be affixed to an engine exhaust manifold.
The nitrous oxide in the bottle of this Edelbrock Performer RPM kit is under high pressure so the gas doesn't need any help getting inside the engine. This kit uses a plate that fits between the carburetor and intake manifold.
This nitrous kit from Nitrous Works is for use with EFI, but it works the same way as the carbureted counterpart with a plate beneath the throttle body.
Nitrous Oxide Systems is also a division of Holley, and they have extensive nitrous offerings. Concealed systems are possible with separate nitrous and fuel nozzles going to each intake runner underneath the intake.
