Blower and supercharger are the same thing.
You can use any centrifugal supercharger on a carbureted engine. You will need a "hat" or box for the carburetor for the piping to connect to.

Don't you need some sort of special carb set-up for that, I thought I heard somthing like that somewhere. Because of no vaccum or somthing.

yea i pretty much guessed any will work but they never advertise the piece that sits on the carb, and paxton recommends a demon 4150 style carb for there setup, i have a speed demon 650 all mechanical and no choke whats the difference between the 2, and when i think of blower this is what i think about

i was looking at vortech and i didnt even think that paxton made a hat or box for superchargers and what i meant was between blowers like 671 etc and centrifugal superchargers i would like to get into the tens or at least elevens i have a manual four speed but i think i am going to change it to a C4 of i think there is a C6 with a small bell housing and i would like a for 9 inch rear end but i cant find a decent price used one and i was thinking 4 11 or 4 56 gears not sure dont want to rpm to early and i am just researching different nitrous kits any suggestions on thanks sorry so long i have been reading everybody's article's and i respect your opinions

I figure you could get into the 11s pretty easy, Mabe a 4.10, gt-40ps, and a good 150 shot. Slicks and struts. I have also called roots type(blowers), and centrifugal(superchargers).
