Default Can someone tell me what setup this is?

In my auto shop class me have a 69 camaro that was built in the late 70's as a class project. I like the set-up but haven't seen many around like ours that has a blower but doesn't have a supercharger or anything. Just a tube looking intake manifold, spacer, holly Carb, then a blower? I love the look of a blower and want to do something similar with my car just not sure what parts to buy. I can post pictures of it if someone can tell me how.

A blower and supercharger is the same thing. You can't not have one but have the other. We'd really need to see what you're talking about to make sense of what you're trying to describe. Host your pictures on a site such as photobucket, then copy and paste the "IMG" code here.

Tunnel ram with dual Holley's, like what I have. That's a different make of intake from mine (Weiand):

Most likely the name is cast onto the manifold, look around in the valley area or in front of the distributor.

Looks to me to be an Edelbrock.
