Default what kind of blower set-up is the tallest???
How come some set-ups look way taller than others?? What is usually the tallest??? I know an intercooler makes it taller but what are the other factors??

make and model of supercharger, a 177 will have a low profile while a 12 or 14/71 will have a high profile, put some carbs and a spark arrestor on top and you have a tall engine.

The bigger the number, the bigger the blower.

I think the PSI's are the tallest, just not as long as the traditional 1471/1671.
