i went to edelbrocks site and no success i didnt find a thing on prices on them and it didnt say applications and it was only from stock motors. it said "will give u up to 500 hp and 557 lb ft of tq which the motor im starting with already has more than that

You have a problem, to make boost on a 502 without excesive intake air temp requires a bigger blower than a 6 71 but you dont want it sticking up. You will not get the best of both worlds. I believe that what you are trying to do is not realistic.

i have seen a blown 502 done with a weiand blower i know for sure it waasnt bigger than a 6-71 and that car ran low 11's

a stock 502/502 should run in the 11s without a blower if the car doesnt weigh 4500 lbs. You need to figure out what your goal is for the motor and then come up with a combo that works. Spinning a little blower to make 5 lbs of boost on a 502 will heat the air up alot and detonation and general undrivability on the street will occur.

man i hope it has a good warranty lol. i dynoed it at home on a dyno program i have it said a supercharged 502 will overheat but with the right fan and rad combo it should run 170 which is overbut acceptable.mostly this truck will be going to white rock, around town on a cruise and up to ashcroft. it is all open road mostly so over heating is not a factor.and for detonation im not gonna be pushing this motor to the limit. but i will consult my dads friend he is an engine builder and had made some of the sickest stuff out there but i will consult him first.

according to weiand- run 4 lbs of boost will give u what u need and anything above is certain detonation. i measured it all out drop the motor 2" cut that front crossmember a bit and get a 3" cowl u will have 1" clearance.
