We are building a 69 Shelby Prostreet Conv. with a Shelby Alum. 427 (462) Stroker,Blower,fuel Injected engine. We are using a BDS 871 Blower & Intercooler - Pump Gas setup with the injector bar being under the 2 -1000 CFM Throttle bodys under the Bugcatcher.
Are any of you guys running a 871 blower on the street and if you are having any problems and what problems you might be having!
Thanks in advance !

im in the middle of a project, im building a big block chevy, with a BDS 10/71 blower and intercooler to run on the streets and track. I posted questions reguarding what should I use to achieve my goal of 1000 hp/ 1000 tq. many on here had good part combination suggestions. I know they maynot help you that much , because your building a big block ford and you may have a different hp/ torque goals for your engine.

I was originaly going to go with a 572 bbc, and a 871 blower to get the 1000 hp. and found that it wont work as well as I had expected.

so if you could give more info on what you intend to do or expect from your buildup, and how much power are you looking for?
