I wouldn't recommend adding blowers to engines with 376hrs. You would need bigger carbs as well and should go through the engines completely before adding the blowers.
More than likely, you will need valve jobs soon anyway.

Griff is right...thats way too many hours to install a blower without a rebuild....the mags have the right parts for a mild blower installation but only on a fresh engine. Don't forget to give attention to the igition, especially timing, and fuel volume. Good luck.

i have an intercooler for a 177 if you want it. $200 i bought it for my engine, but i have a 174, they gave me the wrong one....
