google it! use the internet. there are a bunch of superchargers out there. they are all designed different to conform to your needs like power, gas eco, PRICE, and etc. So what are you tryin to get out of one, what do you want to gain? how much do you have to spend? these are the questions you should ask yourself. and is you your engine ready for one. can it handle one. i don't recomend one on a stock 350. the head bolts alone will not hold even for a low grade blower. if you want the power from a blower be perpared to drop several bills just to get your 350 ready for one. if you had a newer truck with a LS1 engine you could bolt on and tune its just not recommended. you could too, but you might run into problems very quickly.

There most likley isn`t any current supercharger producers that make specific kits anymore for your truck, I know whipple stopped making theirs about 4-5 years ago, but used ones can be found for 1000-2000 bucks depending on condition etc,etc Athough a Universal kit can be made to work but will require alot of R&D, I have a whipple on my 454 and i still had to twist my brain afew times to make things work

 

 

Also as stated above make sure your engine is fresh and that all other drivetrain components are newer or stronger than factory, any amount of boost limits durability, Its a fact of hot rodding. (:

 

Expect the cheapest way to get one on will cost 3-4k, and thats not even touching beefing up your truck already.....
