"I think using the 'Bird SC blower is difficult due to using different heads and a blower that is limited due to having a press on belt pulley."
^^^ Agreed ... You have split port heads - To use the M90 you'd have to revert back to pre-99 single port heads (loosing roughly 45 HP) and then install the blower. A lot of work to end up with roughly the same HP - just a neater looking engine bay.
Now .... roddy ... where are the pics of the x-charger?

97_SALEEN_5.0... Thanks man. I got the kit direct from Explorer Express, and Installed it myself. It took a bit of time to do, but wasn't a difficult job at all.
2k6s197...Thanks Joey. I look forward to taking you for a ride. It pulls hard right from the bottom, and the whine from the blower is sweet. When are you coming up to change your struts/springs? It must be just about time...
