 have a GT350 with air, can I ad a Paxton supercharger to it? I would have to be installed on the passenger side. Is there a way to do this?

I suppose where they is a will there is a way. I am not sure the blower on a 67 GT350 air car(and retaining the air) is a prudent choice all things considered.Just my opinion.

You could add a Thermactor system for some real fun while you are at it.

Joking of course.   ;D

If Tim could do both on a big block, a GT350 should be a snap

These cars were meant to be driven. It's your car to personalize anyway you see fit. If you want a blower on an air-conditioned GT 350 then get on it. Please post lots of pictures I'm sure there are many here that would be curious to see this done.

There was a guy here did it about 15 years ago. Walter something. He was part owner of a tire distributorship in Elmsford, NY. Car was Presidential blue, 4 speed.
It all fit in nicely. I never heard it run though but saw it about a dozen times at his shop.

At some point there was a right hand mount made. I don't know if it was just a "one off" custom fabrication or if there were a few made and "kept on the shelf"? It was a while ago. Maybe 30 years ago and in the mean time Cobra Automotive did the dual Paxton set up for the FE's.

Two places to check with. Paradise Wheels and Cobra Automotive. I'd take an educated guess and say that likely either will make a set up for you. Not to worry. ;D

Could you use/modify a fox mustang bracket? They mount the blower on the right side.

It might be easier to mount the AC compressor on the other side.
