Sooo.......what direction does everyone think i should go with my motor??

1: Supercharge it with a positive displacement?
2: Supercharge it with a Centrifugal?
3: Hook er up to the bottle?
or 4: Go all motor?

I personally am a fan of the all motor concept,
but thats just me.. :D

[85zeee]

well I evened it up lol no replacement for displacement.......except for boooooooooost hehe

[stickshiftram]

go overkill the allmotor way:flaming mad:

I voted for the centrifugal blower. A friend of mine has an unintercooled vortech S trim on his 98 cobra and he went from 310 rwhp to 398 after the blower and a tune. I wanna say he has 36# injectors but I'm not sure on that.

Hey Dan look at this. Still not sure what you wanna do? He puts a partial mod list at the first on the c5 vette one. :D

I'm an all motor fan myself. Nothing like somebody who can pull up on you and spank you everytime without anything sticking out of the hood or spraying out into the air. Plus to a ricer when you pop the hood and they don't see a power adder or nitrous, they will think you must have stickers hiding under the carpet or somethin.

Hey there's no option for turbo...

[The DanSmith]

yeah, but the turbo option= more $ than 2 blowers just about considering the custom fabriction and all that would have to be done....

and those vids were pretty sweet 5.0

I'm kinda leaning toward Centrifugals now, but still not 100 percent sure..

[Phoenix 5.7]

im no expert, but seems like with the weight of the car, FI is the only way to go. id say an intecooled twin screw, although centrifugal would be the next choice

[The DanSmith]

I think I've made my decision......I'm probably gonna go with an '03-04 Cobra top end for the lincoln.......considering that will probably be the cheapest way to boost....:rockon: :rockon: :rockon:

[john_d.]

Yeah, 6K is kinda high for a turbo...

This sounds like a nice setup though, +200hp:

There's a guy on tennesspeed.net with a turbo Lincoln. 1987 with a 5 speed conversion/swap. Runs low 11's. :)
