Im running V belts not serpentine. Beside converting to serpentine any way that the paxton kit like i said made for 88' up TPI fit my 87' TPI? BTW the only belts im running is waterpump,powersteering,crank and alternator.

the 87 uses a MAS and i believe the 88 does not

What is a MAS? Are your referring to MAF as in Mass Air Flow sensor? Cause its produced from 85-89

You would have to change from a V belt system to serp belt system.

Sorry but you're wrong. 88's had MAF.

And all you have to change to use the blower is the belt setup.

I think it will bolt up, however, you may have to get a special addapter for the MAF. The MAF cars are for 89 and below. 90 and up are speed density. Since it is a 87, it has a different blet system and that may be a problem, but not huge. I'm sure you can omit or even change some things around eailsy.
