I am playing around with the idea of using a supercoupe m90 on a carbed application, a 272 y-block 56 f100 draw thru 4 barrel nonintercooled. What kind of RPM range do these spin on our SC's, stock and at diff overdriven %s? I am trying to figure out drive ratios, and the boost levels that they would produce. I believe I have a workable pullie arangement that gives me a 1.87:1 drive ratio. The engine will be a 5000 RPM max, which is around 9500 blower rpm. I know boost is a measure of resistance to air flow, and restriction on the inlet is huge, but what sort of boost #s do you guys think this could produce?
I have also seen one of the companies who specilize in v6 power have a carb conversion kit, but I have not been able to find it now that I am actually looking I was planning on just building a simple 90 degree adaptor box from the rear inlet to a 4bbl flange, but if the kit is reasonable, no sense in reinventing the wheel Any one know of the, or a kit like this?
Thanks
Adam
