Power Adder
Anybody know where I can get a super or turbo charger for y 1995 Lightning? The catch to it is I dont have the 351W anymore. It now sports a 408ci Keith Craft motor? Any help is greatly appreciated. 
Check Prochargers website! I would love to see that on an F1

Procharger doesn't make anything for the Lightnings - if you want one, you're own your own in terms of fabrication and installation. It has been done, though. Several of the very fast trucks run Prochargers and I used to run a D1B.
As was mentioned, Dave Pickrel makes a turbo kit, Vortech makes supercharger kits, and for that much motor that's about all you have available (no sense in even considering a Powerdyne or Kenne Bell).

It doesn't matter if its factory or Keithcraft or whatever, the hardware to do all the fitup is the same since its still a Windsor with all the same hard points.
You'll have to get the discharge from whichever setup you choose fabbed to mate up to a carb hat.
Dave Pickrel originally built his turbo setup on a carbed truck and still runs a carbed arrangement so he's probably your best bet unless you want to do your own fabbing.
The bigger Vortech head units will fit in their Lightning bracketry with some tweaks.
