Same ol 5.0 questions but just a different person askin this time!

Ok guys, I got one! 1991 LX 5.0 5 speed in black. Hatch and all bone stock with 112k. Got a saleen wing and has had the ponys painted black. I will swiftly yank those off and slip on some 17x9 chrome cobra R's however, I must ask this question first.........

I have the dough to spring for a new Supercharger but I am hesistant. The car is still strong and runs good but the supercharger is more than the car! lol.

Would just a little 100 shot of the good stuff be the same? I really dont want to get into heads, 800mm TB's Upper and lowers just yet. Just want to get the car lookin good and a little more go than stock and then later maybe add some more bolt ons.

This car is my Pre mid life crisis, drive only on days that I need to blow off steam. LOL

I have had 6 lx's one 85GT and an 84 SVO. Im gonna keep this one for a while.

What would you guys do?

Cobra R's are first, no matter what.

Thanks

I think you would be more satisfied with the supercharger over time. re-filling N20 gets old.

S/C, SVO 3.73 gears, Pro 5.0 shifter, custom chip. U can add the other stuff later.

On the other hand it's far cheaper at first to go N20 and might be better for a car thats not drivin very much...PB

yea it gets very old and the supercharger is always there id take the sc and go from there.

But will this stock motor with 112k hold it?

5-6lbb of boost would be all i would go. ur engine already has forged pistons stock!
