I think Kenne Bell makes the only one for a pushrod.
You can get a powerdyne centrifugal kit for around that price too. They are very nice, I drove one back in about 1997 on a stock 5.0LHO with 3.55 gears and a catback...Very quiet, refined power adder. And the often feared "belt drive" hasn't really been a dependability problem.

I am curious on why you would want a low end power blower for a 5.0?

 5 liters don't need the low end boost. The reason they're so popular on mod motors is that a, mod motors lack low end torque, and b, it's a direct replacement for the Eaton on a '03 Cobra.It's also by far the ugliest blower setup I have ever seen (the 5.0 version that is).  A Vortech S trim would be a great blower for a moderate street setup with a stock shortblock.

What cam and intake are on your setup? Both of those could be the reason for the lack of power under 2000 rpms, but honestly when do you do any spirited driving under 2000 rpms?

Hi all,
I really like my KB Blowzilla. On the street the low to mid torque is awesome and makes the car fun to drive. I'm running 8 psi on 91 Octane and it works great. You just have to learn how to feather the throttle on launches or my Drag Radials go up in smoke  Don |
